quartering Act
A lot.
In all but two colonies, Connecticut and Rhode Island, King George III appointed the governor. However, the assemblies paid the governors salaries and the salaries of the bureaucrats. King George III sold the right to collect taxes. His tax collectors could add whatever commission they wanted. They could break into houses to collect whatever taxes they considered due. It was legal strong armed robbery. King George quartered solders in empty buildings. The solders decided which buildings were empty. A number of empty buildings had people living in them. However, the colonial assemblies had control of the budgets. The local governors and sheriffs could control King George's thugs. In 1773 King George started paying the bureaucrats directly from England. That ended the possibility of any reason for the Governors to listen to the assemblies. In 1774 Indian wars broke out on the western frontier. In 1775 War broke out in Massachusetts. During that period, the colonial assemblies fought with the governors to be in control of the states. The assemblies sent representatives to the continental congress. The governors opposed that move.

During the Battle of Bunker Hill, which took place on June 17, 1775, approximately 226 British soldiers were killed. The battle was one of the early engagements in the American Revolutionary War and highlighted the fierce resistance of colonial troops against British forces. Despite the heavy losses, the British ultimately captured the ground.
