The British protected the colonists from external threats, particularly from Native American tribes and rival European powers, such as France and Spain, during conflicts like the French and Indian War. They also established a standing army in the colonies to maintain order and provide security. However, this protection often came with increased taxes and regulations, which contributed to growing colonial discontent and the desire for independence.
