He managed to drive out Keserwan's nobility, the Khazen family, and declared a peasants' republic. Shahin became a popular figure among Christian commoners, many of whom considered him the guardian of their interests, a view which Shahin promoted. He was a principal belligerent in the battle of Beit Mery between local Maronites and Druze, which became the first major confrontation of the 1860 Mount Lebanon civil war. He claimed he could raise an army of 50,000, although he did not participate further in the war. Following the war's end after international intervention and his subsequent defeat by Youssef Bey Karam, Shahin relinquished his republic and worked in the judiciary of his home village, Rayfoun."@en }
