the declaration of independence declares native americans on the wrong side of the war.
the king of england imposes unjust rules and taxes on colonists.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the chronological order of events related to the American Revolution:

1. The king of England imposes unjust rules and taxes on colonists: This was a primary grievance that led to colonial discontent and the push for independence, occurring before the Declaration of Independence.
2. The Declaration of Independence declares Native Americans on the wrong side of the war: The Declaration of Independence was adopted in 1776, after colonial grievances (like taxes) and as the war began.
3. Colonial troops invade and destroy Iroquois land: During the Revolutionary War, colonial forces (and allies) clashed with Native American tribes like the Iroquois, with invasions of their lands occurring after the Declaration (as the war escalated).
4. Britain abandons the claim to the Thirteen Colonies in the Treaty of Paris: The Treaty of Paris (1783) ended the war and recognized U.S. independence, occurring last.

So the correct order is:

1. The king of England imposes unjust rules and taxes on colonists.
2. The Declaration of Independence declares Native Americans on the wrong side of the war.
3. Colonial troops invade and destroy Iroquois land.
4. Britain abandons the claim to the Thirteen Colonies in the Treaty of Paris.
