lol i got the same question for my h.w and i found out, that they rebel for their political principles. They rebel because they wanted the same rights as Britain, but Britain didn't allow it. The colonists was angry that they didn't have the same rights and have no power...........etc
They learned many lessons from the past and they wanted to enjoy all there rights.

The Olive Branch Petition asked the king to protect the colonists' rights.
The Virginia Company introduced the headright system to the colonies. This allowed the colonists to own land. They were also allowed to form a representative government.
the colonists believed that the powerto tax was the power to erode a persons' political rights
In 1776, the Continental Congress issued the Declaration of Independence. The document explained the colonists' reasons for severing their political ties with Great Britain.
The Bill of Rights was important because it listed what rights the colonists should have that the government can't take away from them, which is what Britain did, so the colonists rebelled.
Britain's colonies largely received from Britain the concepts of parliamentary democracy, limited monarchy, civil rights, the rule of law and an independent Judiciary. These were not always or uniformly applied during or after the colonial period, but they were largely incorporated into post-colonial constitutions and political philosophy.
The American colonists were entitled to the rights of englishmen because they were an English colony. The abridgment of those rights was the cause of the revolutionary war.
