What did both shays’s rebellion and the pennsylvania mutiny cause americans to realize about the articles of confederation? the articles of confederation needed to better control citizen rebellions. the articles of confederation needed to establish stronger state legislatures. the articles of confederation did not provide for a strong enough national government. the articles of confederation did not provide farmers and soldiers with enough money.

Most likely the second to last one. One of the main flaws with the Articles of Confederation is that it made the government too weak in the eyes of its citizens, and it was. The states weren't much of a union back then and had different opinions on different subjects. The government also couldn't enforce laws. Establish them, sure. But not enforce. In other words, there wasn't truly much to do with rebels except to convince the Constitutional Convention to form a new government system.
