What influenced Americans who were trying to decide whether the colonies should become independent or remain within the British Empire?
Americans weighing the decision for independence were influenced by various factors, including Enlightenment ideals of liberty and self-governance, widespread resentment towards British taxation without representation, and the growing desire for economic autonomy. Influential pamphlets like Thomas Paine's "Common Sense" galvanized public opinion in favor of breaking away from British rule. Additionally, the experiences of conflict, such as the battles of Lexington and Concord, heightened the urgency for independence. Ultimately, a combination of philosophical, economic, and social pressures swayed many toward the revolutionary cause.
