Accepted Answer

# Brief Explanations:
The excerpt is from Bacon's Declaration in 1676, criticizing Governor Berkeley's handling of Native Americans. This led to Bacon's Rebellion, an armed insurrection against the Virginia colony's government. Option B is incorrect as the conflict wasn't settled peacefully. Option C is wrong because British troops weren't used here (it was a colonial rebellion). Option D is incorrect as the governor wasn't assassinated by Bacon.
# Answer:
A. Armed insurrection against the government of the Virginia colony
