Question

“british victory against france in the seven years war helped to cause the american revolution.”
which answer best explains why this quotation is true?
a france sought revenge and stirred - up colonial anger against the british.
b the british attempt to industrialize canada offended the american colonists.
c britain became overconfident, resulting in a failed invasion of spanish florida.
d the british increased colonial taxes in order to pay for the victory over france.

Explanation:

After winning the Seven Years' War, Britain faced massive war debt. To cover these costs, Parliament imposed new taxes on the American colonies (such as the Stamp Act, Sugar Act) without colonial representation, which sparked widespread anger and resistance that contributed to the American Revolution. The other options are incorrect: France's revenge efforts were not the primary direct cause, industrialization of Canada was not a grievance, and the failed invasion of Spanish Florida was unrelated to the revolution's origins.

Answer:

D. The British increased colonial taxes in order to pay for the victory over France.
