Answer:

The Shay's rebellion was an event where a man named Shay gathered a group of angry farmers, as they were in debt due to their time in the American Revolution and were now being taxed. They went to the town arsenal to arm themselves. However, without a president and a militia, they were barely stopped. This showed the weakness of the Articles of Confederation and that a new constitution was needed.
