The Maryland Uprising, also known as the Maryland Rebellion, was a significant event in the early history of the United States. It occurred in 1689 when Protestant settlers in the Maryland colony rebelled against the proprietary government of the Calvert family, who were Catholic. The rebellion was a part of the larger political and religious turmoil in England and its colonies during the Glorious Revolution. The uprising ultimately led to the overthrow of the Calvert family's control over Maryland and the establishment of a royal government in the colony. The Maryland Uprising was a turning point in the history of the colony as it marked the shift from proprietary rule to royal control. Additionally, it also reflected the tensions and conflicts between different religious and political groups in the early American colonies.
