Colonists in America became increasingly angry with King George III and the English Parliament in the years before the Revolutionary War. Much of this anger was caused because the colonists were given no representation in the government regarding issues such as taxation. Parliament passed many laws taxing the colonies without their agreement and these taxes became very burdensome.

Who was champagne charley townshend?
Champagne Charley Townshend was the chief cabinet member of king George the third of England 1766-1767. He came up with the infamous Townshend Revenue Acts which placed tarrifs on lead, glass, paint, paper, and tea imported into the American colonies.

Reasons why the American colonies went to war in the 1770s?
England had taxed the colonies unfairly, and they did not want the British soldiers, or redcoats, in their cities.
