What caused the war was that the King of England put a lot of taxes on products. One product was tea they were especially mad that it was tax. That started the Boston Tea Party. That was when the colonists dressed up like Indians and dumped tea into the harbor. The king of England was mad about that because he paid all that money and it was just dumped into the harbor.
Something else he taxed was official papers. That was the last straw because they had to pay for this stamp on their papers like diplomas, deeds, and a lot more. So they had to pay for a stamp just to have official papers.
