Question

What was the chief reason for colonial discontent just prior to the first shots?

Answer 1

The chief reason was the stationing of British troops on cities, it is for the colonial discontent just prior to the First shots. The relationship of the American colonies between their British rulers has become more tense, more poisoned, more regarded as by resentment and disbelief that the once seemingly indestructible bonds of empire were on the verge of dissolution, it is by the mid-1700s.
