A group of protesters, led by Revolutionary War veteran Daniel Shays, began a 6 month rebellion by taking over the Court of Common Pleas in Northampton; James Bowdin, the governor of Massachusetts, was clearly in the latter group.
Shays rebellion happened because the newly formed country which is America didn’t have the money to pay the soldiers for risking there lives for the country during the revolution and those soldiers were losing everything like property so they went around burning court houses so the government couldn’t take their land and property
