How is the French and Indian War a reason for the Revolutionary War?

Tbe colonists help fight the French so that England could gain control of some land west of the Applachian Mountains. Remember at this time, the colonists were still loyal to England. After the French and Indian war, England did not want the colonists to get into fights with the natives on the western side of the colonies. So then the issued the (Royal) Proclmation of 1763, stating that the Colonists could not move west of the Appalachian Mountains. The colonists were really mad at this, because they had just fought a war to gain land, and now they weren't allowed to move onto it.From the war, England was also in a huge debt, so they started taxing the colonists on all sorts of everyday neccesities, and people started having boycotts and protests against the products made from England. Thus, the Revolutionary War eventually started when the colonists got mad enough at England.
