La guerra del regolamento o movimento dei regolatori fu una rivolta delle colonia della Carolina nel Nord America Britannico, durata dal 1765 al 1771, in cui i cittadini imbracciarono le armi contro gli ufficiali coloniali. Anche se la ribellione non cambiò la struttura del potere, alcuni storici lo considerano un catalizzatore della guerra d'indipendenza americana.
