Britain accumulated a lot of debt while fighting the French and Indian war. They decided that since the war was to protect the 13 colonies, that they should pay them back. Thus Taxation with no representation! The colonies had to fight back so they united to stand against Britain.

The colonists united against the French and Indians for their own defense. Benjamin Franklin used his own money to hire a regiment of solders to fight in the Lehigh Valley in Pennsylvania. That is not far from Philadelphia and the New Jersey border. The French and Indians were trying to conquer and kill the English Colonists. The Colonists could either do nothing and be killed or fight back.

The colonists had been fighting since the founding of Jamestown. In the French and Indian war, the French joined the Indians. The colonists had been prepared to fight since the beginning.
