Answer:

D. Write the Declaration of Independence and separate from Great Britain

Step-by-step explanation:

As the English crown founded more and more colonies in North America, the settlers felt as citizens of the British Empire, but were treated as second class citizens, since they had different rights and trade and supply of goods was heavily controlled by the crown to the colonies, so they relied on the british empire for trading and different imports and exports to get basic products, when the crown decided to tax the american colonies, thay felt like they lost all of their rights, so they decided to declare their independence, taking advantage of the war that the British were fighting in Europe.
