Answer:
The two events that caused the American Revolution were the Boston Tea Party and the British Occupation of Boston.
Explanation:
The revolutionary era began in 1763, when the French military threat over the British colonies of North America (French and Indian War) came to an end. The increase in maintenance costs of the Empire led the British government to adopt a highly unpopular policy: the colonies had to pay a substantial part of it, for which they raised or created taxes (Sugar Act and Currency Act of 1764, Stamp Act 1765).
The growing discontent was evidenced in the creation of opposition groups such as the so-called "Sons of Liberty", the meeting of a congress of representatives of nine colonial legislatures (Stamp Act Congress, New York -In the current Federal Hall-, October 7 to 25, 1765), which issued a Declaration of Rights and Grievances; and finally in popular protest mobilizations such as the Boston Tea Party of December 16, 1773.
The reaction of the British government was to militarily occupy Boston (1768) and to enact a set of laws that curtailed the powers of the autonomous institutions and increased those of British officials and military, the Intolerable Acts.
These events and the tension they generated ended in the United States War of Independence.
