because the were power full
Either the American Revolution, or the War of 1812.
The French colonists treated the Native Americans with A LOT more respect than the other colonists did (including British colonists). The NAs would have rather had no colonization on their land at all, but given the choice to defend the peaceful French territory or fight alongside the British (who wanted to acquire that territory) it was an easy decision for them to make.
The excuse given was that taxes helped pay for British troops in the thirteen colonies, who were alleged to be there to "defend" the colonists. However there had never been large numbers of British troops in the colonies before except when the colonies became a battleground in the wars between France and England. At other times the colonists were left to defend themselves, from the Indians, or from French troops when the wars got going, before any British troops arrived. But after the French and Indian War the French were ejected from all of North America. There WAS no danger such as had existed before that war. With the French gone, who could these British troops be meant to oppose? The only answer was that the colonists themselves were the object of interest for the British troops. One of the real reasons for the taxes was that Britain was broke, the Treasury empty. It had been expensive to fight the long war in North America, so far from Britain, as well as in Europe, and even in the Pacific, and, it was a colonial dispute between the British colonies and the French colonies that touched off the war. But the British gained immense territories from the war in the end. And the British had received a LOT of help from the men of the colonies, fighting in their militia and colonial units alongside the British Regulars. These American soldiers were supported by taxes paid in the colonies they came from, so from the American point of view the colonists had already paid heavily for the prosecution of the war, in blood and money.
The French and Indian war removed the threat of the French from North America. That made the colonists feel less dependent on Britain because colonists felt that they no longer needed Britain to defend them.
Poland
After the revolutionary war the America was too young and unable to defend for itself. So then the British and French fleets boarded American tradesman and destroyed them.

Fort Necessity
He persuaded the governor of Virginia that he was right. Clark raised an army. He and his men captured British in the West.

Taxes were implemented in the British colonies of North America to help pay for the various wars the Empire was engaged in. Since the American colonies were among the wealthiest in the British Empire it made sense to Parliment to tax them to help pay the bills for the defense of the British Empire. The problem with this was that the colonies had often times had to defend themselves against Native Americans, the French and Spanish. It made little sense to Americans for them to have to pay to once to defend themselves and then pay again to defend an entire empire.

There was no US during the French and Indian War!!!The French and their Indian allies were fighting the British. Since the 13 colonies were British colonies the French were fighting the colonies.In fact George Washington served as a major in the militia of the British colony of Virginia during the French and Indian War fighting against the French.After the British won, they imposed taxes on the colonists to pay for having defended them against the French. The British also placed troops in the colonists homes to defend against any later attacks. These were two of the actions that later led to the American Revolution.
