Road to Revolution
Prior to the American Revolution, Britain controlled the colonies through a system of mercantilism.
Many Americans found the system debasing, and they felt kept in a state of adolescence that was
never allowed to come of age. It wasn't until Britain began taxing the colonists after the Seven
Years' War that Americans began to realize what they had to do in order to resolve their problems
being forced upon from overseas. The colonists developed a strong sense of their identity and unity
as Americans by the eve of the Revolution through coming together to fight for independence from
Britain.
The colonial identity led to the final split between the colonies and England. Advocating the
American Revolution, Edmund Burke, a British political philosopher, believed that there were no
characteristics shared by America and England. Separated by a mighty ocean, Burke stated that
England could not hope to rule America because of the natural barrier between them (Doc B). This
barrier benefited the colonies as their identity grew because England was not able to easily control
