The British Empire wanted to expand their North American territory to the Ohio valley, which was controlled by French. To pay for the war effort, they taxed the Colonist. Once the British empire had conquered the Ohio valley, Parliament made expansion over the Appalachian mountain against the law. However, Great Britain still had war debt and so taxation continued.
