Further explanation

a young country proclaiming its independence, the country is now known as the United States. On July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress adopted the Declaration of Independence, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The contents of the declaration is to declare the independence of the United States from the United Kingdom and its King. The declaration of independence occurred 442 days after the American Revolution began in Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts and at the same time started a conflict that would involve France. The first time Americans showed resistance to Britain was in 1765 after Parliament passed the Stamp Act, which is a tax regulation to increase income for financing British troops in America. Whereas the slogan "there is no tax without representation", Americans voiced opposition to the new regulation in October 1765. However, the colonial government continued to implement the rule in November 1765 which led to a boycott of British goods. There were even attacks on customs offices and tax officials' residences. After several months of protest, Parliament finally decided to revoke the Stamp Act in March 1766.

After that, Americans again obeyed the British government until the Parliament issued the Tea Act, a rule designed to save the East India Trading Company (EIC) by lowering taxes on tea and giving EIC a monopoly on the tea trade in America.
