The tense relationship between the American colonies and Britain was primarily caused by a series of taxes and regulations imposed by the British government without colonial representation, such as the Stamp Act and the Townshend Acts. Colonists felt their rights were being violated, leading to widespread resentment and protests, famously summarized in the slogan "no taxation without representation." Additionally, Britain's attempts to exert greater control over colonial governance and trade, alongside the enforcement of laws like the Intolerable Acts, further fueled the desire for independence. This growing discontent ultimately culminated in the American Revolution.
