○ farmers had fallen into debt.
○ there were continuing american indian raids.
done ✔

Explanation:

Shays's Rebellion was driven by debt burdens on Massachusetts farmers. Post-Revolutionary War economic struggles, including high taxes and lack of access to hard currency, left many farmers unable to pay debts, facing foreclosure and imprisonment. The other options are incorrect: dissatisfaction with the Articles was a result of the rebellion (showing the government's weakness), land disputes between states and Indian raids were not the cause of this specific uprising.

Answer:

Farmers had fallen into debt.
