The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached we can say the following.
How much of the American Revolution's cause is tied to the ideas of liberty and colonist's pursuit of commerce?
Most of the American Revolution's cause was tied to the ideas of liberty and colonist's pursuit of commerce because the 13 colonies considered that they were economically and politically matured to create their own form of government and stop depending on the English monarchy.
Let's have in mind that the American colonists were sick and tired of the heavy taxation imposed by the English crown, as was the case of the Navigation Acts, the Stamp Act, Townshend Act, or the Tea Act. Colonists believed that they deserved better things and the liberty to start doing business and trade on their own.
After many years of war, the Continental Army defeated the British troop and gained independence from the English colony. The treaty that officially ended the war was the Treaty of Paris of September 1783.
