No one knows for certain because no censuses were ever taken. The estimate is that the thirteen colonies had a total of about three million residents (not all of whom were from Britain - there were Germans, Swedes, Dutch, Protestant Huguenots from France, and others). John Adams estimated that of these three million, about one third were for independence, one third were Tories who were for continued British colonial status, and one third didn't care either way and only wanted to be left alone.

The British because the American colonies were fighting for independence from the British
The British colonised America and the French colonised Canada. The British beat the French out of Canada with the help of the Canadian native tribes and the American colonists. However, the American colonists then fought for their independence from Britain in the 1770s. The British were helped by the Native American Indians, but eventually the French helped the Americans and the British grated independence to America.
It began fighting in 1775. Independence was declared in 1776. The British accepted American independence by the Treaty of Paris in 1783.
Because Americans lived on the continent of NORTH AMERICA and were fighting the British who OWNED most of NORTH AMERICA...Americans were COLONIES of Great Britain. American COLONISTS wanted INDEPENDENCE from their British owners or leadership. Britain would NOT allow that independence, so the Colonists fought them for it.

The American War of Independence (1775-1782), a civil war in which some of the British colonists living in America took up arms against their fellow countrymen in America and Britain to achieve self-government.
The causes of the Declaration of Independence was the increase in british troops in the thirteen colonies in America and a war, the American Revolution, that lasted about 5 years.
British American Tobacco's population is 60,000.
The American Revolutionary War between the 13 original U.S colonies and the British. After the United States gained independence in 1783 from Britain. That's how the United States (America) was set free from the British.
It didn't exist. The British ruled America, so if you mean the British Navy, it was the biggest in the world. The American rebels had some pirates/privateers however, in the war of Independence.
