The correct answer is C) Wrote their own constitutions.

What many states did during the Revolutionary War was to write their own constitutions.

Tired of the heavy taxation imposed by the British crown, the 13 colonists decided to start the Revolutionary War in 1775. Colonists were very angry with different kinds of injustices and oppressive decisions by the English governhment. And of course, colonists did not have any voice or representation in the British Parliament. IT was General George Washington who led the Continental Army against the British troops. During the Revolutionary War, many states opted to write their own constitutions. The Declaration of Independence was promulgated on July 4, 1776, and the Revolutionary War ended in 1783 with a victory to the United States. Both nations signed the Treaty of Paris to formally end hostilities.
