Answer:

Trade

Taxes

Troops

Step-by-step explanation:

The three T's led to the American Revolution. Trade was crucial for the colonists as they imported and exported goods to increase their wealth. Trade was restricted in the colonies including limiting trade and manufacturing. The economy came under the practice of mercantilism by Britain and the imposition of taxes by the British government on the American colonies. Taxes played a key role in uniting people together to fight against the British. The taxation policies of the Britishers in the colonies angered the colonist. Taxes were imposed on colonies to lessen the burden of debt British. Some of these taxes included the Sugar Act, the Stamp Act, and the Intolerable Acts. British troops were stationed in all colonies to control law and order. The Boston Massacre was the result of the British troops stationed in the city.
