Answer:

France's decision to side with the united states ( D )

Step-by-step explanation:

The contributing factors to the start of the American revolution involved

British writs of assistance , Stamp act ( direct taxation of colonial legal papers and commercial papers by the British ) Taxation without representation. the British writs of assistance warranted an unconstitutional and unnecessary general search warrant that permitted custom officials to enter any ship or house to search for smuggled goods and Americans were not happy about that. all this led to the American revolution except France supporting the united states which occurred during the Revolution.
