Answer:

On July 2, 1776, Congress voted to declare independence. Two days later, it ratified the text of the Declaration

Step-by-step explanation:

They fought the British because of unfair taxes. They fought because they didn't have self-government. When the American colonies formed, they were part of Britain. Britain increased taxes for colonists on things they bought and used every day, like tea.
