This marked the end of the Indian war. This granted great britian a great deal of land north american land.It also started problems. This granted that colonies couldn't migrate west because the British said no you are not aloud to go over there.
That made them mad so they were like no we want to move that way to claim more land but the British were ordered to shoot on sight or lock them up.
Then they were trying to make them pay for it even though they never started it.
I think this would start it because they were dropping them from finding things like food water and more shelter and more land to build off of

The Boston tea party was a political protest. it was for taxation without representation. They jumped on the ship and threw over 340 chests of tea. This made the British mad so they shut down the harbor for a little not letting any in or anything put they were trying to make them pay for all the tea that was throw over board. The clonest didn't want to pay that because samual adams was the one to do it. It happened because they were tried of being taxed so much.
THis would start the war because they cant get there goods and they cant get there money they needed to pay for these taxes they were making them pay

The sugar act was that England was taxing more for sugar and molasses in the colonies. They started to enforce the collection duties. this made molasses go up 1.5 to 3 p per gallon. they average 30,000 in revenues in year s 1765 to 1774.
In order to enforce the act there where courts where Judges decided on the outcome rather than the colonial courts in where the decision was left to the jury. They started to boycott some stuff from the colonies because they were smuggling in the goods effectively and they didn't like that.
For the first time the sugar act raised difference constitutional issues. IT raised for the benefits for the crown others viewed it as tax to regulate the flow of trade and as a continuation of the existing and long accepted 1733 molasses's act.They vilified their rights of no taxation without representation

When they pushed for this colonial Resistance to act mounted slowly at first but gained momentum as planned. They started to talk about it in the newspaper than it got big they shouldn't have been stamping anything any ways they did pay for it they just got it over their. THis started part of it cause they didn't want to have to get every little thing stamped when they wanted to write someone when they wanted to by some wine

This lead the heavily publicized leading by Samuel Adams. It was fought on the streets the mobs were throwing rocks and sticks at the British.The british got mad and started shooting.
This would start the revolution cause they did something wrong and they were trying to run from it and the colonist wanted justice and they never got it.

Committees of Correspondence were the American colonies' first institution for maintaining communication with one another. This is them uniting the 213 starts showing they are one together showing that they are their own states and their own country. They put in up when they were in the war with general Gage. They took it down and burned it.
This would help cause it because they are now one instead of individuals

This is over four acts and the fours acts are Boston port act, Massachusetts government act, Administration of justice act and quartering act.
The Boston port act was them shutting the port down for good not to come in and out so they stopped a lot of people getting money. They shut it down because Samuel Adams threw almost 300 cases of tea over board they wanted the colonies to pay for it.
Massachusetts government act was aborted the colony's charter of 1691 reducing the level of the crown colony. This had general Gage stop meeting without him approving of it.
Administration of justice act was aimed for protecting British officials this allowed them to go to England and face his crime and it gave them and encase for them t go into homes and beat up people and do what ever they pretty much wanted.
Quartering act was the act were that if any unoccupied building that wasn't being used British american or colonist leaders can settle down in there.
I feel like this will start the revolution because they are taking away there basic right and they closed down the harbor
