I think that there were many factors that led to the colonial break and eventual Revolutionary War with England. The Crown and Parliament in London didn't care about the Americans or if they were unhappy about how they were represented or not. The colonies seemingly were there just for the good of the motherland. Eventually, the colonists rebelled against Britain and declared themselves a free country. In my opinion, these were the three most important factors in that led to war with England.
             First, I think that the Boston Massacre played a major, if not the most important role, on the road to war with England. On March 5, 1770, a group of people outside the Boston customhouse were taunting the redcoat around the customhouse. He then called for help, and more British soldiers arrived. Somebody rang the town fire bell, which just caused, even more, people to show up to the already erupted scene. When one of the British soldiers was knocked over shots were fired into the colonist group. At the end of the day, five Americans were dead, and eight more were wounded. The first to die was Crispus Attucks, a runaway slave. He to this day is considered the first casualty of the Revolutionary War. This at the time, had to have had the Americans blood boiling. The fact the soldiers who had killed the colonists stood trial were later acquitted, besides two that were branded on their thumbs. If I were a Bostonian, just a brand on the thumb as a punishment for manslaughter would have set me through the roof. I'm sure that the killing of unarmed townspeople had a major role in the road leading to the start of the Revolutionary War in 1776.
             The Boston Tea Party was another act by the colonists that led to war. On December 16, 1773, a group of sixteen Patriots, dressed as Mohawk Indians, boarded three ships dumped 342 chests of East India Company tea into the Boston Harbor. The Patriots that committed these acts remained unknown, much like other ...
