Who Was Involved? British Troops & Colonists vs. French Troops & Native Americans

Causes Clash over colonial territory Rivalry between British and French colonists

North America in 1750

Tension Rises  The French and Indian War in North America (1754)  The Seven Years’ War ( )

Results  England & the Colonists defeated the French & Indians  The Treaty of Paris was signed in 1763  VERY COSTLY WAR!!!

How was Britain Affected?  Bitter towards American colonists  Defending the colonists = huge debt for us

How were Colonists Affected?  New sense of morale  Taxed to pay back war debts  Dealt with presence of British troops

Sugar Act Raised taxes on non-British goods shipped to the colonies

Quartering Act  Required the colonies to provide barracks and supplies to British troops

Stamp Act  Taxed newspapers, almanacs, pamphlets, legal documents, dice & playing cards  Stamps proved payment

Taxation Without Representation  How can you tax us without representation in Parliament?!?!  FIGHT BACK! Boycott English goods!  Boston Tea Party

Intensified Conflict  King George III determined to force obedience  Colonists are split:  1/3 = Patriots for independence  1/3 = Loyalists opposed to independence  1/3 did not take sides

Patriots Took Action…  First Continental Congress – 1774  Demanded colonists be granted the full rights of British citizens

 By 1775 – British troops feel threatened by growing colonial resistance  Battles in Lexington and Concord between the British and armed colonists  The American Revolution had begun!

 Second Continental Congress – May 1775  Prepared for war  Delegates meet again in 1776 and vote to declare freedom from Great Britain  July 4,1776 – Declaration of Independence adopted
