When North Carolina didn't have a captial, Governor Tryon's built the Tryon's Palace. He got John Hawk, a skill architect, to build him the palace. After he finished he had to pay for it so he taxed the people of North Carolina heavily. The people weren't happy. They tried to fight back but solider were trained better than them. In 1798 building caught on fire and burned to the ground. But in the 1940s, some North Carolina citizens wanted to rebuild the palace. So in 1959 they rebuilt Tryon's Palace.

In 1771 Governor Tryon left his palace and had his troops march west. The Regulators had 2,000 men and Tryon only had 1,000 men so the thought it would be easy to beat them. But on May 16, they fought. Tryon's men were trained much better than the Regualator's and the Regulators lost the battle.
