There was a series of laws and amendments passed to give them their rights, and example would be:
The right to vote
The destruction of man being enslaved do to color of skin
Etc.
But of course this stuff kept going until the late 1800`s, but finally died down
The colonies were better off governing themselves without British influence.
Better working conditions in factories and agriculture
The French and Indians were not exactly the closest allies to the colonists, yet they joined eachother as allies in a battle against the Monarchy and loyalists.
