Answer:

The Regulator Movement was a series of uprisings over excessive taxation and lack of law enforcement in the British colonies of North and South Carolina from 1765 to 1771.

In South Carolina, the Regulator Movement protested the failure of British government officials to maintain law and order in the western frontier backcountry.

In the North Carolina Regulator Movement, settlers in the inland agricultural communities fought against unfair taxes and tax collection methods imposed by corrupt British officials.

While the South Carolina Regulator Movement succeeded, the North Carolina Regulator Movement failed, with its members being routed in the Battle of Alamance that ended the War of the Regulation.

Some historians consider the Regulator Movement a catalyst to the American Revolution.
