A majority of the colonists initially sought a compromise with George III because they valued their connection to Britain and were reluctant to sever ties with a powerful empire that provided economic benefits and military protection. Many colonists believed that their grievances could be addressed through negotiation rather than rebellion, as they hoped for greater representation and rights within the British system. Additionally, the idea of independence was daunting, as it involved risks of conflict and uncertainty regarding their future governance and stability. Thus, the desire for reconciliation often outweighed the push for outright independence during the early years of colonial unrest.
