The American colonies began to grow increasingly resentful of Great Britain's rule in the 1760s, particularly after the imposition of taxes such as the Stamp Act in 1765 and the Townshend Acts in 1767. This resentment intensified over the following decade, culminating in events like the Boston Tea Party in 1773 and the First Continental Congress in 1774. By the time the Revolutionary War began in 1775, colonial discontent had reached a boiling point.
