AnswerAmerican colonists wanted independence from Britain, and wished to practice freedom of religion. Those who fled from England wanted to be free to make their own decisions instead of being controlled by others. The colonists didn't agree with a Monarchy form of government, they wanted someone devoted to the job of a ruler and wanted the vote to be unanimous. Most of the colonists never agreed with the British Parlaiment's acts and policies and most often rebeled or commited treason, which could have lead to a death sentence if caught. One of the most famous examples of treason was the Declaration of Independence, because it went against the laws and policies of its ruler, which at the time was King George III (King of the United Kingdom).

Causes of the American Revolution

A lot of taxing- there were high taxes on everything. All official documents had to be sealed and taxed. (i.e. marriage documents, birth certificates etc). The Americans had to house British soldiers, give them weapons and food.

Consequences of the American Revolution

Boston Tea Party Closing of the Boston Port The 56 Delegates went to Philadelphia 3 times. (First: Solution, Second: Army and government and Third: Signing the Deceleration of Independence).

The American revolution was the result of the colonists being angered by the government of England. Instead of paying taxes and obeying the rules of a king across the ocean, they decided they wanted to become an independent, united country of their own.

Before the American Revolution, the colonists were unhappy about the taxes they had to pay to Britain. This led to the Boston Tea Party and the passage of the Intolerable Acts.
