At the onset of the war, colonists were divided in their positions regarding independence from Britain. Many sought to reconcile and maintain their rights as British subjects, while others, increasingly frustrated by British policies and taxation without representation, began advocating for complete independence. The outbreak of hostilities, particularly after events like the Battles of Lexington and Concord in 1775, galvanized support for the revolutionary cause among those favoring independence. Ultimately, a growing sentiment emerged that favored breaking away from British rule.
