Britain continues to fight throughout the world, and wars are expensive. This expense fell on these colonies which saw increased tax policies. The colonies also had no representation in British Parliament, so they had no say in any of these policies. This led to the well known phrase "No taxation without representation". With no compromises being made, the colonies created The Declaration of Independence, which started The American Revolution.]]> 2022-01-11 14:51:52 UTC https://padlet.com/rscott131_1/1qcz50iae678dxum/wish/1986204591 rscott131_1 https://padlet.com/rscott131_1/1qcz50iae678dxum/wish/1986204592 Very similar to the American Revolution, France was seeing increased taxes because of the expense involved when Britain conquers new land. The system of government within France was also flawed, dividing the population into 3 categories based on wealth and giving each group equal voting power. This means that the lowest class, the commoners, made up about 97% of France, but only had 33% of the voting power. This allowed the upper classes to take advantage of the commoners when it came to paying taxes. The commoners came together and revolted against the upper classes, starting The French Revolution.]]> 2022-01-11 14:51:52 UTC https://padlet.com/rscott131_1/1qcz50iae678dxum/wish/1986204592 rscott131_1 https://padlet.com/rscott131_1/1qcz50iae678dxum/wish/1986204593 intentionally blank to show period]]> 2022-01-11 14:51:52 UTC https://padlet.com/rscott131_1/1qcz50iae678dxum/wish/1986204593 rscott131_1 https://padlet.com/rscott131_1/1qcz50iae678dxum/wish/1986204595 Mary Wollstonecraft published A Vindication of the Rights of Woman.  It's a book in which she argued for more rights for women.
