Hi guys can you help me to write this in we’ll own words please The whiskey rebellion was a 1794 uprising of ranchers and distillers in western Pennsylvania in dissent of a whiskey charge instituted by the national government. Following long stretches of hostility with charge gatherers, the area at last detonated in a showdown that brought about President Washington sending in troops to subdue what some dreaded could turn into an all out upheaval. Resistance to the bourbon charge and the insubordination itself manufactured help for the Republicans, who overtook Washington’s Federalist Party for power in 1802. The Whiskey Rebellion is considered one of the first major tests of the authority of the newly formed U. S. government
