=The American Revolution began in the mid 1700s and ended with the Treaty of Paris signed in 1783. As John Adams said, "The revolution was effected before the war commenced. The revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people." Following the French and Indian War, the colonists began feeling the confidence that victory brings. They increasingly saw themselves as a separate entity, one that could defend itself against any opposing threat. Of course, King George III and Parliament were viewing the situation quite differently. They were affirming their need for the colonies in order to remain a world power and to generate revenue through taxes and trade. Prompted by this perception, the British government increased control over the colonies and levied taxes, which in turn led to the rebellion known as the American Revolution.=
