After the Revolutionary War, Britain continued to see the US as still its colonies. Even though Britain made a treaty to end the war, it felt that the new country would not survive long and when it fell apart, it would reclaim as many colonies as it could. This attitude led in part to the later War of 1812.

Why didn't the British people refuse the English tax system?

The question perhaps refers to the rebellion of the American colonists in the matter of paying tax to the British crown. The justification for the colonists was that taxes were being paid to England but they had no representation in the British government. The British who remained in Britain had representation within the democracy that was well established by the 1700s. Although there were periods of discontent, democracy and the rule of law has remained stable in Britain for several centuries. The tax system was simply a part of the democratic system in place and accepted by the vast majority of citizens.


What was the result of the Quartering Acts?

The Quartering Act, which originated in the British Parliament in colonial times, ordered American colonists to house and feed British soldiers. There were two versions of the act, in 1765 and 1774. Neither was popular and in fact, increasingly, the American colonists resented these laws and sought ways to circumvent them; most state legislatures did in fact ignore or refuse to comply with them. These acts contributed to the belief on the part of the colonists that a revolution was necessary, in order to become independent from unfair British laws.
