What problems developed between the colonist and british?

Answer 1

Because the British wanted to rule over the colonist and the colonist did not want to be ruled over by the British. Or for that matter they did not want to be ruled over by anybody because they wanted to be a free country.

Answer 2

The colonists were angry with the British government because they were heavily taxed to pay for the Seven Years' War, and they had no representation in the government so they could not have a word about this.

Answer 3

This question is best answered by first looking at conflicts between Europeans and Native Americans in a broader scope than just English colonists and Native Americans. Without exception, people from Europe arrived in the Western Hemisphere to live, farm and mine.

This automatically meant that the colonists were living on and taking land that previously belonged to Native Americans.

At any given time in the Western Hemisphere, conflicts between Native American did occur. However, these internal conflicts rarely had the affect of permanently losing Native American territorial customs to a totally foreign group of new people, that being European settlers and the armed forces that came with them.

Whether it was English colonists, French or Spanish ones, conflicts arose because the Europeans, for lack of a better term, simply stole the territories of Native Americans.

With that said, taking over new territories by new people has been part of human history for thousands of years. It has been a fact in human behavior that this happened and in terms of realpolitik we can see it

in Europe where Crimea has changed from Ukraine control to Russian control.
