The American Revolution started because of the dissatisfaction of taxation without representation which England levied on America. Americans were satisfied with their relationship as a Colony of Great Britain in 1763. But the government of King George was not. Then England levied a tea tax, which the Americans refused to accept. The ‘tea act,’ gave the British East India Co monopoly of the tea trade. Although the tea would have been cheaper, the patriots saw the monopoly as a start of Great Britain to enslave them. This was a turning point in the history of America.
