The Bacon rebellion was originally believed to have started when land owners became upset with their current governor, William Berkeley refused to retaliate against native attacks they had endured. Historians now believe it was a retaliatory attack against Berkeley for playing favorites at court. The financiers of the rebellion were wealthy men who had been excluded from Berkeley's inner circle.
