Bacon's Rebellion abruptly ended their prominence in 1676. This armed rebellion is considered to be the first to occur in the New World. It began when Nathaniel Bacon’s plantation was raided by Susquehannock Indians, who had been displaced from their home to the north. Bacon asked Virginia Governor William Berkeley to raise a militia and retaliate. Berkley denied the request so Bacon raised a militia, in violation of the governor’s wishes. ==Facilities==
