While the British still won the war they still had a massive collection of debt. The way to get rid of debt is to raise taxes and the Americans did not like that because in their mindset they were drug into a war that they did not want to be in and were not compensated for their service they were taxed into poverty. The taxes were the main thing that started the Revolutionary War and the taxes where needed so the British could get out of debt because of the French and Indian War

British debt after the French and Indian War led to increased taxation in the colonies.
