American Revolution

The 19^th century was a period that the slave trade was abolished on an international platform. However, this action did not affect the slave trade business in the internal states of America. Many people continued enslaving individuals in their homes to carryout various chores such as house and farm works. African-American men and women were victims of slavery and suffered during the first half of the 19^th century. It was during this period that the northern part of America was in disagreement about slavery while the southern region comfortably accepted it as part of their culture (Steele and Brislen, n.d.).

Many of the African-Americans in the southern region were kept as slaves doing house and farm chores for the ‘white’ Americans under minimum or no wage. The first half of the 19^th century was a moment when industrialization was established in America. At this point, women were viewed as inferior beings in the society with house chores delegated to them while men went to work in the industries. Indeed, African-Americans were inferior to their employers, but so were the ‘white’ women to their husbands (Steele and Brislen, n.d.).

Introduction

All the thirteen colonies that later become the United States of America were at first the colonies of Great Britain. Just before the American Revolution took place the people of these Colonies were tired with the British rule. From time to time, there existed discontent and rebellion amid the people (Egnal, 2010, p. 12). For those individual who think that the change the American government is a real revolution they are wrong as the change is an economic and social one. One of the reasons that the colonies were rebellious against England was the heavy taxation issue bestrewed upon them. Were taxation and discomfort amid the colonies the only reasons that the revolution took place? The below sections will highlight other reasons why the American Revolution took place.

The thirteen colonies disputed that the British had no legal power to overtax them, in addition, they wanted a representation if there were taxed but England could not offer this. This was the main cause of the American Revolution. Based on the Revenue Act of 1764 a constitutional agenda was discussed whether the King had the mandate to Tax the colonies. This later led to wedge in the dispute that finally freed the United States Colonies from Great Britain power. Taxation without representation that prompted the reasons of the American people against their mother country (England) (Hobsbawm, 2010, p. 23).

The response against taxation among the colonies was very rampant. Most articulate and powerful political and social groups in the population went against the rule that caused this taxation issue. Resolutions against the eve of taxation with any representation that on the view of the Americans was a threat to colonies liberties were passed. In 1765, all the representatives held a closed-door meeting for the first time to choose the best options to mobilize their people against interference in American issues and Affairs. From this time onwards, the Americans reached a point of no return. In November, 1773, at the Boston Tea Party, a reaction to the compromising Tea Act prompted a reaction among the colony representatives. The following year Continental Congress met for the first time and formed the “Association.” The body assumed the leadership of their mother country (England) and started domestic organizations to end Royal Authority. Many people opted to join the movement, thanks to the Association formed. Mobilization of the army and collection of suppliers began to take effect. The management of the Association was able to propel public concern into a revolutionary devotion.

The other reasons that the American Revolution took place is because of resource sharing. The British were known by taking resources such as mineral.............
