The Correct answer is "B".

Nathaniel Bacon was a plantation owner and a man with much power and influence in Virginia during the second part of the 17th century. He led a raid against governor William Berkely claiming that he:

  • Was monopolizing fur trade with the Indians (Bacon was restricted to trade with them.)
  • Advancing his personal favorites to public offices
  • Being "Pro-Native American"

Even though the rebellion was unsuccessful in removing the Native Americans from Virginia, it did result in governor Berkeley being recalled to England.
