There were several reasons that led to the US war of independence. First and the foremost reason was over taxation by the British to cover their expenses that were incurred because of the Indo-French war. This enraged the US citizens and they wanted to revolt against the British. Certain goods like cotton, tobacco etc.that were made in America had to be sold to sold to the British and again those goods were further taxed for selling. There was definite policy of double taxation. The gold that were sold to the Americans by the Europeans had to land in Britain first and then after taxation it reached America by British ships.

Discuss how and why Rhode Island New Hampshire Connecticut where established

Murrr4er [49]

The first New England colonies, which included Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island and New Hampshire, were all founded in the 17th century, beginning with the Pilgrims at Plymouth in 1620. All but New Hampshire were founded as havens for various religious groups, including Puritans, Separatists, and Quakers.

Rhode Island was founded by people who did not come directly from England. Roger Williams had ideas to turn Rhode Island into a tolerant and multicultural place that quickly became a home to dissenting Puritans, Baptists, Quakers, and Jews.

New Hampshire was authorized by the government to fish off of Portsmouth’s coast. Between 1623 and 1679, Thomas Hilton and David Thompson (and more) cleared the land, built houses, and prepared the colony for defense before the region was officially a colony. Their primary purpose was to export wood and fish for economic gain.

In Europe, they similarly supported Eastern European Pro-Western parties.

However, by the end of 1992, the United States had abandoned as they did not see the USSR as a threat anymore.
