the governor of the Virginia Colony at the time (Give Me Liberty an American History 103). William Berkeley had been the governor for over thirty years, and during those years the people had grieved. He was a very corrupt governor who was easily bought. He formed alliances and appointed his friends to government positions so that he was able to do whatever he wanted (102). The people had had enough, and Bacon took advantage of this. Bacon just wanted power, and for he himself to be governor. He…
