The Berbice Rebellion of 1763 was a major slave uprising in the Dutch colony of Berbice, now part of Guyana. The rebellion lasted from February 1763 to October 1764 and resulted in a major victory for the slaves. The rebellion began when a group of African slaves in Berbice led by a freed slave named Cuffy rose up in protest against the harsh treatment they had been receiving from their Dutch colonial masters. The rebellion quickly spread to other slave communities in the colony and was met with stiff resistance from the Dutch colonial authorities. The rebels, however, managed to gain control of the entire colony and declared their own independent state. The Dutch colonial authorities quickly responded by sending in a large force of soldiers to put down the rebellion. After a series of battles and skirmishes, the Dutch forces were ultimately able to retake control of the colony in October 1764. The results of the Berbice Rebellion were far-reaching. In the short term, the rebellion resulted in the deaths of hundreds of slaves and the destruction of the colony's economy. In the long term, however, the rebellion helped to galvanize the anti-slavery movement in the Dutch colonies and around the world, which eventually led to the abolition of slavery in the Dutch colonies. The rebellion also served as an inspiration for other slaves in the Caribbean and beyond, who used it as a model for their own uprisings and rebellions.

Toussaint L'ouverture (1743-1803) helped lead a rebellion against to colonial governors of Haiti, which eventually established an independent black country on the west half of Hispaniola. L'ouverture died in 1803 after being imprisoned in France, but his followers defeated the French and declared independence on January 1, 1804.
The strength of the federal government helped to put the rebellion to rest. Shay's Rebellion is thought to be one reason why people rallied behind the Constitution.
