Definition1/4
In the beginning of the war, colonists were upset that they were
being taxed from the British, for a war they had nothing to do
with. Many of the colonists rebeled and they wanted to be
independent. So all and all. They fought to form a new nation
because they didn't want to be under British rule; a country 3,000
miles away.
