Explanation:
<u>British taxes practically caused the revolution of the colonies</u>, therefore option "A" is not the correct answer.
That various religious and ethnic groups coexisted in the American colonies was no reason for colonists to tend to support British royalty (D).<em> In fact, diversity and immigration were one of the reasons why the thirteen colonies flourished so quickly.</em>
The colonists didn´t feel that British royalty did anything for them as they had to survive on their own, dedicating themselves mainly to agriculture. <u>The difference in wealth between the inhabitants of England and the colonists was very large, therefore the colonists did not feel entitled to the rights of English citizens (C). Not because the American colonies had a great diversity of religious and ethnic groups.</u>
Because the American colonies were home to diverse religious and ethnic groups, social distinctions were more blurred than in Europe (B). In New England, diversity was ironically the point in common that its inhabitants had and that would lead them to fight for their independence.
