Pros · They could be free of Britain's quarrels with its European neighbors. · They could pave the road for other countries to be free of British rule and have their own freedom. · They would be free of obeying any laws set out by the British, especially the Intolerable Acts. · They could create their own democracy. · They could get France as an ally, because the French were still mad about losing the Seven Years War and wanted revenge on the British. Cons · Some Americans still had family in Great Britain and did not want family conflicts. · They were the first country to try and break free from Britain, so they were not sure if it would work out; being on their own was a risk. · Merchants would have to find new markets instead of relying on the trade with the British Empire. · The British Empire, the largest in the world at the time, would be their enemies.
