What were the main reasons colonists wanted their independence from the king?




1.Colonists were forced to live in England, work for the King and their sons were forced to marry his daughters
2.Colonists were forced to pay unfair taxes without representation in Congress, colonists were forced to let British soldiers live in their homes and Colonists were forced to join the British Navy against their will

Answer 1

Answer: 2

Explanation: Colonists were forced to pay unfair taxes as it said, and they were given no voice in congress, meaning that they couldn't say anything about it. Another thing that made the colonists want their independence was the quartering rule. where soldiers couldn't make people house them in their private homes without the owner's consent, forbidding the practice in peacetime.
