Hi!
The ideas of the enlightenment were exponential to the ideas we have today regarding politics. Great philosophers like John Locke set forth ideas like the invisible hand and the social contract.
Thoughts like these led to the fall of one of the most common forms of government at the time - a monarch. This led to nations changing to form a true system of government, where not one individual has too much power.
The ideas set forth by great thinkers like Locke helped put power in the hands of the people, not one individual at the top. The ideologies developed during this time are still in place today.
People conjured up the idea of splitting the government up into branches, as a way to prevent one person from having all the power. Our government still follows this set of ideas, by being split up into three different branches.
Hopefully, this helps! =)

Answer:
Dear _______,
We need independence! Britain is making living in the colonies unbearable. I've been trying to keep up with my taxes, but they are just too high. Britain doesn't live under the circumstances we do, they should not be able to tax us unless we have a opinion in the matter.
I also dont understand why we are forbidden to move West, we got all this new land and all these new taxes, and for what? They're is more fertile land there, my plantation could thrive there... We need to make these decisions on our own and not let Britain make them for us.
I do not understand why I had to share my household with a red coat and it was very unpleasant, I had to provide food and water, that I could hardly provide for my family in the first place.
The British have been deciding what we should sacrafice, even though it barely affects them. This is ridiculous! We need to make our own decision. We are the only ones to know the flaws in the parliament we are living by. Please consider the reasoning behind my decision to support the independence from Britain.
sincerely,
(farmer)
