American revolution was the fault of:

- the English insulting taxes
- the French giving military support
- the Americans seeking for independance, freedom
- all three cumulated

Thanks for enlighten me, really

"Was the fault of" in this context sounds like "was started by."

French military support certainly helped win the war, but had no effect on starting the war.

by "was started by." you means the precise event that started the physical fights ?

Because they did repression when rich americans thrown the tea in salted water or something like that ?

hmm, sad, but it's a good start yes

/e i think the main problem is to define a "causality."


Linear causality refers to a chain of events where b is durated; B leads C; C entails d; etc
In contrast, the circular causality implies a chain of events of a different nature: has led to b; B leads C; But c returns to A.

The circular system works completely different from a linear system.

It was mostly due to the English placing taxes on the colonies without allowing them a say (read: allowing people with money in the colonies a say) in how it was collected and on what.

The United Nations has 193 member states and two observer states. As of documentation released in the year 2012, out of these, only twenty two countries were not invaded by Britain which gives Britain almost a 90% dominance rate over the world's states. After British, France had the second most widespread invasion. The high invasion rate by the British can be attributed to various factors; a well-established nation with vast pool of resources, military prowess and the nation’s interests in amassing more resources for their development. Britain’s invasion occurred in various forms, the most common being military invasion. Other ways included settler farmers and explorer missions sanctioned by the British crown.

The 22 countries that escaped Britain’s invasion are Monaco, Mongolia, Marshall Islands, Mali, Luxembourg, Liechtenstein, Kyrgyzstan, Ivory Coast, Andorra, Bolivia, Belarus, DemocraticRepublic of Congo, Burundi, Central African Republic, Guatemala, Chad, Paraquay, Vatican City, Tajikistan, Sweden, Uzbekistan and Sao Tome and Principle. There have been several reasons brought forward as to why or how these countries escaped Britain’s invasion. Major factors are presence of an already established rule in that country by a powerful colonial master and existing good ties between Britain and the country.


britain was once a mighty power, now they worship a royal family who they were dumb enough to let escape a guillotine. scotland fucked up, should have voted leave when they had the chance.

Taxation without representation was the core issue.

You pay taxes to a representative government then you get representation via voting.

America was developing its own distinct culture by this time.
