The American Revolution began in 1775 as open conflict between the united thirteen coloniesand Great Britain. By the Treaty of Paris that ended the war in 1783, the colonies had won their independence. While no one event can be pointed to as the actual cause of the revolution, the war began as a disagreement over the way in which Great Britain treated the colonies versus the way the colonies felt they should be treated. Americans felt they deserved all the rights of Englishmen. The British, on the other hand, felt that the colonies were created to be used in the way that best suited the crown and parliament. This conflict is embodied in one of the rallying cries of the American Revolution: No Taxation Without Representation.
BASICALLY
The American Revolution
Americans believe they deserve all rights of British Men
United States involvement in the Boxer Rebellion would have contradicted the ideals George Washington laid out in his farewell address. It also would have violated the Monroe Doctrine by becoming involved in Europe's colonial matters
It was a pamphlet that filtered through the 13 colonies stating all the reasons that they should revolt against Britain. It persuaded the colonists to fight in the American Revolution for a break from Britain. It heavily criticised the king and monarchy, and talked about opportunities for the common man.

Yes, for a few reasons at that. Some of them would be because Britain had forced taxes against the colonist without their approval and also wanted them to become catholic while they wanted to be christian.
At the time of the American Revolutionary War, Great Britain was confident that this rebellion could not last. England was a powerful country with many world wide colonies, a strong economy, a trained army and an excellent navy. They were able to capture major cities such as New York City and Philadelphia. Also, there was within the American colonies a group of people called loyalists who did not want to be independent from Great Britain. This favored an end to the rebellion. Things began to change when France became an ally to the rebelling colonies.
What reasons might loyalists have had to support Great Britain?Those who chose to stay with Britain, the Loyalists, did not consider unfair taxes and regulations good reasons for rebellion. Some remained loyal to the king because they were officeholders who would lose their positions as a result of the Revolution. Others were people who lived in relative isolation and who had not been part of the wave of discontent that turned so many Americans against Britain.
Britain chose to tax the American Colonies and the colonists said no taxation without representation. For this and other reasons, a rebellion started (the Revolutionary War), which led to the independence of the United States of America.

One of the reasons the US was in favor of becoming involved in the Boxer Rebellion was the due to the siege of the American Consulate in Beijing. The US was also part of the Eight-Nation Alliance.

Louis XVI did not support the ideals of the American Revolution, he just wanted to weaken his country's enemy, Britain, who the Americans happened to be fighting against. Louis XVI persuaded himself, for selfish reasons.
