The British imposed a lot of different taxes on the colonists and kept troops there. The major complaint was that they said: No taxation without representation -meaning , they would not pay any taxes unless the British invite them to the Papliamant and they could have a say in the government and decide how the tax should be spent.
The English viewed the American colonies as a way to earn money. In this way, the British taxed the colonists and allowed them little freedom. The colonies didn't have any say on what decisions were made, and the decisions that were made were made across an ocean. They were constantly patrolled by British officers, the things that they produced were taxed for benefit of the British, etc. etc. Eventually, the colonists grew tired of being controlled by England and decided to rebel. Personally, I think the main reason that the colonists wanted to rebel was that they were a separate place - across an ocean! - and they wanted their own say into the decisions that affected them.
the people ( which was colonist) needed to vote and they did.the voting came before the writting of the declaration of independence.
Boston Blockade or Intolerable Acts if I am correct.
Because the British spent a lot of money on the french and Indian war.
The US were angry with the British because the British were helping the Native Americans fight against the US. Also, the British were capturing US sailors and interfering with US trade.

British colonist had more people, but French colonist held more land.
The colonist WERE British, so they wrote a letter to the king ( the Declaration of Independence) to tell him what the problems were.
The American colonists objected to many things the British burdened them with. Taxes were a sore point. Long before the "revolution fever" took root, the colonists were upset that they would be taxed to offset the costs incurred by the Crown in the French and Indian War.

Dumping tea into the Boston Harbor to protest unfair taxes
Heavily taxed by the British government.
Before 1776, the American colonies were ruled by the British government under the system of colonial rule. This system allowed the British government to make decisions for the colonies and impose taxes on them without their representation in Parliament.
American school uh. it was after
Before the Declaration of Independence, the Colonies were subjects of the British Crown, a constitutional monarchy.
