What are six events that lead to the American Revolution?

Answer 1

Well let me start at the beginning shall I? America wasn't always its own separate country. It used to be colonies controlled by England. When everyone was first exploring, and they found the Americas, everyone went immediately to the easy money places. Spain went to the mountainous areas and got gold. Other people went to places near there or grew known cash crops. France got furs from the Indians. But England got the left overs. No one wanted the area near Ohio and towards the sea, so England took that and colonized. But they didn't know what to do with it or how to make money. The point of a colony is to make money, and since the colonies at first weren't making any money, they governed themselves. But when we started growing things and making money, England came in and:

1.) Got strict and took their rights

2.) Made them trade with England ONLY, so England got all the money and the colonists lost money ( Navigation Acts)

3.) Tried to tax them, to make them pay for the French and Indian war

4.) Passed the Quartering Act, which meant they had to house and feed soldiers in their homes

5.) Wouldn't let them have a say in Parliament (England's government)

6.) The actual solid thing that started the American Revolution: The Boston Massacre.

And there you go! these are the 6 things (not in chronological order) that helped set off the revolution.
