Grievances of the colonists against Britain will complete the diagram for the important historical event.

What was the British Empire?

The dominions, colonies, protectorates, mandates, and other nations that were governed or controlled by the United Kingdom and its forbearer states made up the British Empire. It all started with England's establishment of commercial stations and overseas colonies during the late 16th and early 18th centuries. It was the biggest empire in history at its height, and it ruled the world for more than a century. By 1913, the British Empire ruled over 412 million people, or 23% of the world's population at the time. By 1920, it had taken control over 35.5 million km2 (13.7 million sq mi), or 24% of the planet's total land area. Its constitutional, legal, linguistic, and cultural heritage is therefore well recognised. As the Sun was constantly shining on at least one of its domains, it was referred to at its height of strength as "the empire on which the sun never sets."

Portugal and Spain led European exploration of the world during the Age of Discovery in the 15th and 16th centuries, building vast imperial lands in the process. England, France, and the Netherlands started to build their own colonies and trading networks in the Americas and Asia out of envy for the enormous wealth these empires produced. Following the 1707 Act of Union with Scotland, a succession of conflicts between England (then known as Britain) and the Netherlands and France made England the preeminent colonial power in North America. Following the East India Company's conquest of Mughal Bengal at the Battle of Plassey in 1757, Britain rose to prominence as the dominating force on the Indian subcontinent.
