Bacon's Rebellion, a revolt against the colonial government of Virginia led by Nathaniel Bacon in 1676, was fueled by frontier tensions with Native Americans and grievances against Governor William Berkeley. Bacon, a member of the Governor's Council, became the leader of the rebellion after clashes between colonists and Native Americans escalated. The rebellion resulted in the burning of Jamestown and a temporary victory for the rebels before Bacon's death from dysentery led to its collapse.
