Answer:
The Americans, the majority of the colonists, didn't want war but, a peaceful separation and the formation of a new country. Tensions and the British's reluctance towards this idea was which drove the colonists to war.
Explanation:
In 1765, tensions escalated with the Stamp Act which imposed more suffocating British rule over the already fed up colonists. In 1764, Parliament enacted the Sugar Act, an attempt to raise revenue in the colonies through a tax on molasses. Although this tax had been on the books since the 1730s, smuggling and laxity of enforcement had blunted its sting. Now, however, the tax was to be enforced. An outcry arose from those affected, and colonists implemented several effective protest measures that centered around boycotting British goods. Then in 1765, Parliament enacted the Stamp Act, which placed taxes on paper, playing cards, and every legal document created in the colonies. Since this tax affected virtually everyone and extended British taxes to domestically produced and consumed goods, the reaction in the colonies was pervasive. The Stamp Act crisis was the first of many that would occur over the next decade and a half.
