When we hear that the Council of 500 was chosen "by lot," what this means is that the council was chosen at random. All the candidates would put their names together and it was luck that decided who was going to be in the council. This was probably not a very good idea for the Athenian goverment, as it was likely that the people elected to the council were uneducated or uninterested in government.

ioda
The colonists had justified reasons because all they wanted was to have a representative in the English parliament who could vote on future taxes and anything else. If they had representatives in the parliament, the war might have never happened or might have been delayed. The factor that prevented them was that the King believed he could do whatever he wanted because he was the King and the colonies supposedly belonged to him, just like everything else.
