Some reasons the colonists overthrew the British were because of being overtaxed, being forced to house British soldiers, and limited freedoms (press, speech, etc.) They were also not represented in Britain so some colonists felt England had no right to tax them ("No taxation without representation").
Like stated in the Declaration of Independence;
1)- they felt that Britain wasn't allowing the colonies to have all of the freedoms they would have if they were independent
2)- they felt that King George lll wasn't being fair, and believed that, based on their experiences with monarchys, they weren't being governed justly
Along with these things, colonists felt that taxes on goods were becoming outragous.
(look up townsend act, sugar act, tea act, and stamp act)
These along with a few other reasons, is why colonists started to protest and rise up against British rule, later on leading to the consideration of indepence, and the beliefs that the only way to get what they were seeking in a proper government was to create it themselves.

Great Britain forced new taxes on America colonists to pay for war debts.
No taxation without representation was one of the main causes of the American Revolution. The colonists believed they were not directly represented in the British Parliament and that any laws passed by the British Parliament were illegal under the Bill of Rights.
The causes of illnesses in the colonial times came from England. I don't know how the sickness got to England, but I do know how they got to America. When the colonists came to America, they carried germs. The germs killed the Indians because the Indians amune systems did not reconize illness.
second continental congress
Conflicts between the British and the colonists had been on the rise because the British government had been trying to increase control over the colonies and raise taxes at the same time. The event in Boston helped to unite the colonies against Britain. What started as a minor fight became a turning point in the beginnings of the American Revolution. The Boston Massacre helped spark the colonists' desire for American independence, while the dead rioters became martyrs for liberty.
the british colonists had to house british troops.
The colonists in British America felt that they were being ill-used by Britain, and that their rights to self-government and free trade were being usurped. The proponents of independence had many causes to be upset with King George III, as enumerated in the Declaration of Independence.

The American Revolutionary War was a response to a number of acts by the British crown that imposed requirements and taxes on the colonists without meeting their needs. The effect was the establishment of the United States of America as an independent nation.

The main cause of Latin American revolution was the self-sufficiency of countries. At that time there was an emergence of the landlord class which also contributed in revolution. Another reason was the race relations between the nations. The uprising of British colonies in North America was stimulated by many taxes and Acts. This enraged colonists, and encouraged American Revolution. Moreover, the colonists in North America were enlightened and capable to start a government of their own. These causes along with many other causes resulted in revolution of Latin America. As a result of Latin American Revolutions, interest in Africa was increased. The tensions in Europe were also immensely increased. A huge growth of United States in political power resulted and the organization of American states took place.
the colonists wanted freedom from the British because they were not being treated fairly and wanted freedom to worship, to male their own laws, and they were sick of having to do whatever the King told them to.

The American colonists objected to British taxes because they were being forced to pay money to the Crown, and at the same time had no say in the British Parliament. This is where the phrase "no taxation without representation" comes from.
