The American Revolution was mainly caused due to the United State's opposition to British attempts to gain greater control over the colonies and to make them repay Britain for its defence of them during the French and Indian War (1754–1763). Britain tried to gain more power and control by imposing many unpopular laws and taxes, including the Sugar Act (1764), the Stamp Act (1765), and the so-called Intolerable Acts (1774). The United states also had a large lack of Parliament representation, which caused them to have even less power and control then they had already. Overall, the two main reasons were that the USA did not have enough power, and that the British forced American citizens to pay higher taxes and follow more laws as a way of paying the British back for helping America in the French-Indian war.
