Before the American Revolution, many American colonists were shocked by the increasing control and taxation imposed by the British Parliament, especially after events like the Stamp Act and the Townshend Acts. They felt betrayed by Britain, which they believed violated their rights as Englishmen by imposing taxes without their consent. This growing tension was fueled by Enlightenment ideas about self-governance and individual rights, leading to a desire for independence. The realization that their voices and rights were being disregarded prompted many to consider breaking away from British rule.
