Answer:
2) Protesting a lack of representation in Parliament
Explanation:
During this time period, the British Empire began to assert more influence in the American Colonies. It wanted a tighter political control over the colonies, and it also raised taxes on them.
The colonists, who were used to lower taxes, and a great degree of independence, were outraged. They demanded "no taxation without representation", meaning that no laws affected them should be decreed in the British Parliament without representation from the American Colonies.
During the French and Indian War, <u>the british were allies of the side of the British indians. </u>
The French and Indian War (1754–1763) was a confrontation between the British colonies and the colony of New France in North America. During the conflict, each side was supported by military forces from its parent country and by American Indian-native allies. The French were outnumbered (60,000 settlers against 2 million inhabitants in the British colonies), and had to rely more on the Indians.
It was a singular conflict. Even tough the European powers participated somehow, it is not regarded in America as a conflict associated to them at all.
The Mexican American War heightened tensions over slavery in that there were many disagreements over whether the new territories won from Mexico should be free or slave territories. The Wilmot Proviso, created to solve the problem, ended up slitting parties on regional areas.
Good luck :)
