The colonies viewed the Seven Years' War as a triumph of liberty over tyranny because it united them against a common enemy, the French and their Native American allies, fostering a sense of shared identity and purpose. The war's outcome expanded British territorial claims in North America, which many colonists believed would allow for greater freedom and self-governance. Additionally, the war's financial burdens led Britain to impose new taxes on the colonies, igniting a spirit of resistance and a belief that they must protect their rights against perceived overreach by the British government.

As a result of the king's injustices, the colonies declare their independence from British rule. They articulate their grievances in documents like the Declaration of Independence, asserting their right to self-governance and freedom from tyranny. The declaration emphasizes principles of individual liberty and the pursuit of happiness, stating that governments derive their power from the consent of the governed. Ultimately, the colonies seek to establish a nation based on equality and democratic ideals.
When Patrick Henry stated that "George the third may profit by their example," he was suggesting that King George III could learn from the American colonies' struggle for freedom and the principles of liberty they were advocating. Henry was emphasizing that the king should recognize the consequences of his oppressive actions and the determination of the colonists to resist tyranny. Essentially, he believed that the king could gain wisdom from the colonies’ pursuit of self-governance and rights, implying that a more just approach could prevent further conflict.
