18 th Century America just before the American Revolution
Trade
Controlled by mercantile system
Colonies expected to provide raw materials to the mother country and consume the finished goods received in exchange
Import/export taxes intended to fund the administrative costs of governing the colonies
Americans consummate smugglers
Minimal British effort to enforce the trade laws
Both British and American merchants thrive
Government
Royal Governor appointed by the Crown administers each colony
Colonial Assembly
Initially supposed to express will of colonists to Royal Governor
Develops exclusive right to raise taxes
Effectively becomes supreme authority
Royal Governor’s salary comes from the assembly
British attempt to re-assert authority leads to violent protests and Revolution
Enormous debt from the Great War for the Empire, (aka. French and Indian War and Seven Years War) causes the British to look to the colonies to raise revenue

People of the Time
Little is known about individuals
Military records are usually the best source of information
