Answer:

The answer to your question is Angry.

Step-by-step explanation:

Many colonists were angry because no one represented their needs in the British government. Colonists believed they did not have self-government. The British forced colonists to allow British soldiers to sleep and eat in their homes.

Most colonists at the beginning were not supporting any type of separation from Britain. What they wanted was their political rights to be improved, but not to create and independent country. This idea actually started spreading during the revolution, while even after the proclamation of independence, there were still a lot of Loyalists who were fighting on the side of Britain.

I hope this helps and have a wonderful day!
