Road to Revolution The Events Leading to the American Revolution

French and Indian War (Seven Years’ War) Fought between the France (with the help of the Indians and Spain) vs. England (with the help of the colonists) Treaty of Paris of 1763 ended war ·England gains Canada and French lands east of the Mississippi River As a result of war England is in huge debt and feels colonists should pay for the war

Proclamation of 1763 King George III declared all newly won territory west of the Appalachians off limits to all colonists. England believed they were protecting the colonists from Indians who would want revenge after the Seven Years’ War. This enraged colonial farmers who wanted to move into the territory. They believed that since they helped defeat the French they should be entitled to some of the benefits of victory

Quartering Act (1765) In order to defend colonies British left English troops in the colonies This act required that colonial cities give food, clothing, and house British troops

Stamp Act (1765) This act required colonists to buy a stamp each time they registered a legal document, bought newspapers, pamphlets, and almanacs. Sons of Liberty formed to protest Act was repealed

Townshend Acts (1767) Taxed paint, glass, lead, paper, and tea. Allowed customs officials to enter anyone house without probable cause to look for smuggled goods. Colonists boycotted goods. They came together to make these products themselves (Daughters of Liberty-came together to make cloth)

Boston Massacre (March 5, 1770) Unemployed laborers attacked Boston’s Custom House with snowballs. Five rioters killed (Crispus Attucks-black man) Samuel Adams (Sons of Liberty) wrote inflammatory article to the newspaper about the event.

Tea Act (1773) Put a tax on tea. Colonists’ response was immediate Tea locked in warehouses (N. Carolina) Tea burned publicly Colonists prevented ships from landing

Boston Tea Party (Dec. 17, 1773) Sons of Liberty boarded tea ship and threw shipment of tea overboard. King George was furious Implemented intolerable acts
