Shays's Rebellion in 1787 was primarily in response to the following:

  • seizure of farms
  • increased taxes

The rebellion was largely driven by farmers' frustrations over high taxes and economic hardships, which led to the seizure of their properties. The other options, expansion of territories and the Northwest Ordinance, were not direct causes of the rebellion.
