The British King passed The Sugar Act in (1764), Stamp Act (1765), Quartering Act (1765), Tea Act (1773), and the Intolerable Acts. The colonists responded with outrage. They boycotted anything that came from Britain, damaging the trade between Britain and America. In response to the Tea Act (1773) there was the Boston Tea Party, which sparked the Intolerable Acts. The Intolerable Acts were met with the colonies uniting even more so, and helping each-other out more than before. There were open protests, raids, etc. Eventually, all of this lead to the Revolutionary War and the Declaration of Independence.
The dust and gas particles of a slowly rotating nebula gradually came together to form a cloud with a huge central bulge surrounded by a flat ring of dust and gas. The sun was formed from the material in the bulge. The flat ring became several rings. In each ring, a planet formed and continued to revolve around the sun in the plane of the ring it came from.
