The thirteen colonies became angry with King George III for several reasons, including his imposition of various taxes such as the Stamp Act and the Tea Act without their consent, which they viewed as unjust and a violation of their rights as British subjects. Additionally, they were frustrated by the lack of representation in the British Parliament, leading to the famous slogan "no taxation without representation."
