They British could have read the letter, and exepted the thoughts, and made slight changes.

Both sides thought as though the others could have been more realistic. The colonists thought that the British could accept their thoughts, and the British thought that they should have sent it legally. So a simple compromise is that they meet in person and discuss the issues rather than being so hostile toward each other.

The British started demanding money from the colonists, after seeming to neglect the existence of the colonists. They enforced rules they did not before the war.

The Colonists could have made the document legal, as well as the congress. If they did it wouldn't have resulted in war, and would've been accepted.

The American colonies didn't care how the letter got to king george if it was illegal or not, they felt mistreated and wanted King George and all of Britain to hear what they had to say about how they felt that they were being treated.

After King George heard about what the colonies wanted to do/have  he revolted, as a result he sent warships over to America.

This war was important because it was really the genesis of the reason the colonies wrote the Olive Branch Petition. Great Britain became broke, as a result of this war. So they went to the colonies for money. The colonies felt mistreated being taxed by new laws set in place and enforced. This created tension which lead to the petition being thought to be a necessity for the colonies to stop a potential war.

One thing that happened is that King George III actually prepared for war against the colonists and hired 30,000 german troops to fight in it. They sent the troops to kill the rebels.

The King refused to read the petition. He refused to read it because it was an illegal document made by an illegal congres. It is not right for the colonists to make an illegal document and send it to the king.

The American colonies sent a letter to Britain about how they thought they were getting treated badly by Britain and wanted to just have more privileges compared to Britain they had very few.

The conflict is that the American colonists wanted  peace, so there would be no war, but the king of England refused to read it because it was an illegal document, created by an illegal congress.

It occured because the American Colonists felt like they were not being treated right and they wanted to avoid war with Britain.

The Olive Branch Petition was a document drafted by John Dickinson, a politician from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, delivered by the Continental Congress. This document was delivered to King George III. It explained they wanted a reconciliation, which in this  case means the restortion of friendly relations, but the king refused to read it. To understand why read under the title called "The British."
