The Colonials felt as if they "had their own thing going" in America, so to speak, after 150 years on their own, and were angry about new taxes the British were laying upon them. The British thought it was about time the colonials gave more to London, particularly due to the high cost of the recent French-Indian War.

New taxes angered the colonials which led them to boycott Britain goods, which led to Britain backing off each time - except for once, with the Stamp Act. The colonials responded with more boycotts and acts such as the Boston Tea party. The British responded by sending troops to settle the colonies down - particularly Massachusetts. This had the opposite effect as British troops were harassed without mercy. One evening, some drunken stone-throwing led to British rifles being fired - and the Boston Massacre. More Redcoats were sent, and, before anyone knew it, a rebellion led to an all-out war.

The main cause of the revolution was due to the seven years war between France and Britain in which France was defeated so the British taxed the colonies highly in order to cover debt lost in the war so the people gave the slogan no"Representation of the council means no Taxation".
