The tension that Britain caused over the colonies made many colonist angered and frustrated with British law. People felt as if British rule shouldn’t be held over the colonist for many reasons: Britain should not be in control of a country or empire with bigger size. Britain caused many grievances like heavy taxes and harsh control.Britain also did not protect and benefit the colonies as Britain should. King George’s rule caused outraged citizens which lead to a revolution.
