For one thing, it sure was rebellious.
In this time, the people of the United States (however, that's not what it was called, rather the 13 colonies- we hadn't obtained most of our territory yet) were under the rule of King George II of Great Britain, and he didn't exactly treat the colonists with utmost respect.
