The British but a tax on non-imported sugar, molasses, and rum. The colonists weren't happy with this one bit as they smuggled goods and ignored the tax.
-
The British kept the colonists behind a line and did not want them straying far from there. To bad that the colonists went off to keep expanding. Looks like the British are loosing control of the colonists.
-
Disallowed the colonies to make their own money and protected British traders from getting non British money. Too bad the colonists tried to anyways.
-
The British put a tax on anything paper. Books, documents, normal paper, you name it. Too bad the colonists decided to tar the tax collectors over the matter.
-
The British told the colonists to let the soldiers to stay in their houses and take care of them, or else they get in trouble. Did the colonists get payed? No. Did the British care? Also no.
-
These were a set of taxes that the colonists were paying but they didn't know they were paying it. Just like Bernie Sanders plan for better Healthcare.
-
This wasn't really a massacre rather than the military just killing a few people, but it's a big deal still. The colonists started making propaganda about it and it added to the tension between the British and the colonists.
-
The colonists went and threw tea off of a ship in defiance against the British in Mohawk Indian uniforms. What the British did next will really shock you!
-
A series of laws that punished the colonists for the actions of the Boston Tea Party. Obviously this increased the tension between the two even more.
-
A meeting between the 13 colonists (only 12 delegates showed up though) talking about the British and rebelling against them.
-
The British tried to come, see, and conquer. To bad that the Colonists were smart enough to not play by the rules. And read some of Sun Tzu's "The Art of War" to position themselves to it would be harder for the British to shoot them. After that the tactic was called Titus warfare. Or Guerrilla warfare.
