British point of view for the quartering act?
The colonists despised the Quartering Act. Parliament decreed that solders would be quartered in empty houses and warehouses. The solders declared houses empty even if people lived in them. The people living in the houses were forced to feed the solders even though the solders did not pay rent. The difference between the law Parliament wrote and its application caused great bitterness.
Why did the Iroquois ally themselves with Britain?
In the Revolutionary War Period of America's history, the Iroquois generally favored alliances with Great Britain rather than the American colonists for one fundamental reason: the British were less of a threat than the colonists were, which is to say that they had more to gain from helping the British than helping the nascent "Americans." The British cannily garnered Iroquois support by also supplying them with arms and other helpful resources.

What was result of issues between Britain and colonies?
The American Revolution. Otherwise known as the revolutionary war. It started because Britain was making the colonies pay unfair taxes. The colonists sent letters over and over again complaining. But Britain's king (King George the 3rd) just ignored the letters. Soon King George the 3rd sent British solders to make sure the colonists paid there taxes. This crossed the line. In Massachusetts a group of men threw snowballs at the solders calling them bloody backs because of their red uniforms. The British solders fired their guns at the men who were not armed. The solders were sent to court for their actions. Therefore the result of the issue between the colonies and Britain resulted in the American Revolution.
