Question

1. how did changing british policies under king george iii lead colonists toward independence?

Explanation:

British policies under King George III, such as taxation without representation (e.g., Stamp Act, Townshend Acts) and restrictions on colonial self - governance (Quartering Acts, Intolerable Acts after Boston Tea Party), increased colonial resentment. These policies violated the colonists' sense of rights as British subjects. Economic burdens (taxes) and loss of local control (like closing Boston Harbor in Intolerable Acts) united the colonies against British rule, pushing them towards seeking independence.

Answer:

British policies under King George III, including taxation without representation and restrictions on self - governance, increased colonial resentment and united them against British rule, leading towards independence.
