The British were upset at the colonists because the rejected many of their acts that they enforced. British did not treat the colonies fairly and only saw them as a way to make money. (The mercantile theory) However, the colonists thought that the acts that the British Parlament enforced were outrageous, especially the Stamp Act and the Tea Act. The Stamp Act resulted in a famous phrase created by a colonist, "No taxation without representation!" The Tea Act was hated by the colonies so much that it resulted in a well known event called the Boston Tea Party.
For Americans, the biggest and most significant event of 1776 was the Declaration of Independence. The American colonies wanted independence from Great Britain. The signers of the Declaration were taking the risk of being hanged for treason.
