The American Revolution

The American Revolution began in 1775 as opening conflict between the united thirteen colonies and Great Britain. The war began as a disagreement over the way in which Great Britain treated the colonies versus the way the colonies felt they should be treated. Americans felt they deserved all the rights of Englishmen. The British, on the other hand, felt that the colonies were created to be used in the way that best suited the crown and parliament. This conflict is embodied in one of the rallying cries of the American Revolution"Taxation Without Representation".
The Taxation Without Representation is a problem that brings along a chain of more problems and complicated dissagreements. Durring the American Revolution, several acts were established. This caused disturbance among the colonists, which gave them the necesity to fight. Colonists did not crossed their hands when something that they didnt like was being made. They stood up and fought for what was right for them, not caring what was what they had to do. 
The cause of this revolution may seem insignificant, but for them, the colonists, it was somethinmg to fight for. The main reason was that the colonists would not pay taxes if they didnt had a representative. The solution of this big problem was to find a person that could represent them. The colonists could pay taxes levied by their representatives. Despite of all the protests the colonists made that argued about the taxes that were being established, they continued on putting more taxes.
