Why did the British levy taxes against the colonists?

The reason any government levies taxes--to pay for services. In this case the taxes paid for the Redcoat's salaries, their guns, cannons, ships, etc. Part of the money also paid for the normal services any government must provide--courts, law enforcement, infrastructure, etc. And don't forget good old King George. He must get his share. That is his right, as the King of England. It would be interesting to see the breakdown of where the tax money went.

How and why did British Imperial policies change after 1763?

Britain changed its salutary neglect approach toward the colonies because of the debt they had incurred as a result of the French and Indian War. Many in Parliament believed the colonists hadn't paid their fair share of the war costs. As a result, they levied a series of taxes on the colonies, hoping to ease their financial burden.


What problem did Britain face at the end of the french and Indian war?

They suddenly controlled a significantly larger empire. They had taken control of most of Canada and India, but didn't have armies and infrastructure in place to either control or exploit these distant places. In addition to that, the war had been very expensive. The French and Indian War was just a small part of a much larger war- the Seven Years War. In Europe, the Seven Years War saw Britain and Prussia fighting against Russia, France and Austria (there were other smaller countries, but those were the big ones). Prussia did most of the fighting in Europe in Britain's place; in return, Britain not only paid for their side of the war, but also paid most of Prussia's, so Prussia's brilliant king-general, Frederick the Great, could focus on fighting and not worry about bills. So Britain suddenly had to deal with a much larger empire while somehow paying off their debts from war.
