What are the reasons for the revolt of the inhabitants of the colonies against England.

1. England in every possible way hindered the development of the economy of the colonies.

2. Squeezing out all the juices, getting the maximum income – was the main task of the metropolis.

3. Taxes (one example of the so-called “stamp act” of 1765, when all profits of the colonies were subject to a special duty. This was done in order to replenish the treasury after the Seven Years War).

4. Prohibition to have delegations from the colonies in the Parliament of England.
