Conflicts That Led to the American Revolution
The American Revolution was the political catastrophe during the 18th century, in which the 13 colonies in North America joined together to break away from the British. The American Revolution was the result of a series of political, social, and intellectual shift in early American society. Many people believe that the American Revolution was simply caused by over taxation. There were three main conflicts that led to the American Revolution; the Enlightenment, The French and Indian War, and The Stamp Act. Why were these events so significant to this historical event?
The beginning of the American Revolution was marked by the Enlightenment. This was a period in history when people started to rationalize more rather than relaying everything upon science. The Enlightenment was more a frame of mind than a coherent movement. It was the intro of liberalism. Liberalism was a new philosophy. This philosophy emphasized freedom, equality, and opportunity. The introduction of this philosophy led to many conflicts and later war, specifically the French and Indian War, and the Stamp Act.
The second conflict of the American Revolution was the French and Indian War. The French and Indian war began in 1754. It was caused by France’s North American colonies being threatened by wars between France and England. They were also threatened by the population growth and increasing prosperity of neighboring English colonies. England had a stronger and larger military force. Despite the struggles, there was a peace agreement. The Amerindian population soon recognized the difference between the English and the French. It badly eroded the relationship between England and the Amerindians. Though the war seemed to strengthen England's hold on the colonies, the effects of the French and Indian War played a major role in the worsening relationship between England and its colonies that eventually led into the Revolutionary War.
The Last conflict was the Stamp Act. The Stamp Act was in 1765. It
