Britain was up to its shoulders in debt from war. The King and Parliament believed they had the right to tax the colonies. They decided to require several kinds of taxes from the colonists, to help pay for the French and Indian War. The colonists started to resist by boycotting, or not buying, British goods. They also rioted so to speak, they would tar and feather officials, dump tea into the ocean and eventually go to war with their motherland.
