American Revolution
The major causes of the American Revolutionary War included disagreements between England and the American colonies over taxation without representation, who would pay for the French and Indian War, and who would make the laws governing the colonies.

Major events escalating the conflict included the Stamp Act and other taxes passed by Britain to raise revenue from the colonies without colonial consent or representation.
