The French and Indian war created the debt. The British expected that American colonists to repay it to Great Britain during the 1760's.
The colonists worried that Britain did not care for colonial concernse...
Britain was upset with the American colonists following the French and Indian War because the war had significantly increased British debt, and they believed the colonists should help pay for the costs incurred in defending them. The British government imposed new taxes, such as the Stamp Act and the Townshend Acts, which angered the colonists and led to widespread protests. Additionally, Britain felt that the colonists had not contributed sufficiently to the war effort and were not fully loyal during the conflict. This growing tension ultimately set the stage for the American Revolution.
Due to the great distance between the colonies and Britain it was hard for Britain to enforce control over the colonists. The colonists got used to essentially governing themselves, so when British rule was more strictly imposed after the 7 Years War (Taxes imposed on the colonists were to try and alleviate the war debt, but led to "No taxation without representation!") the colonists rebelled.

WHY did it? The Proclamation of 1763 was a line drawn by Britain located just west of the 13 Colonies . American Colonists were not supposed to move west of the line. This was done to prevent conflict between American Colonists and Native Americans on the frontier. However, many American Colonists had fought with Britain against the French in the recent French & Indian War and felt that this earned them the right to move unto what had previously been French land and had been acquired when Britain won the war. Also, the Colonial population was growing rapidly--they needed to move Westward and many just ignored the Proclamation Line WHY did it?
