American settlers in Western lands called for action against the British primarily due to grievances over trade restrictions and land policies that limited their expansion. They were frustrated by British support for Native American resistance to American settlement, which hindered their access to fertile land. Additionally, the settlers felt a growing sense of nationalism and desire for independence, leading them to seek a break from British control. This culminated in a broader desire for self-governance and economic opportunity in the west.
