4.3 Review

 * ==Based on your reading "The rights of the Colonists" and the document that you completed the APPARTS for, what do you see as the major reasons that colonists decided to revolt against their British rulers? In other words, what were they fighting for/against?==
 * They decided to revolt against there Brisish rulers because they are done being told what to do. They moved out of British and chose to move to a new land in hopes of finding a better future where they can be free and do what they want to do. They got away from British control and out of British rules, so what makes them think they can move back and rule the colonists in their new land. They have been fighting for there freedom, and against the British rules so they are not going to be told what to do in there new home, thats why they relovted against there British rulers.


 * ==Give specific examples of how people chose to fight for their freedom during the American Revolution AND explain them (you may want to explore the Mass Historical Site a bit more to answer this question).==
 * They fight there British rulers by forcing away the tea that landed in there ports and destroying the tea from being bought and consumed. The british return to there leaders and cant point out individuals so british blame it on boston and the boston ports close untill they pay what has been destroyed. They also use boycoting and other means to free themselfs from british hands.


 * ==Give another example from history of when people took part in a "revolution". What happened? Why? Who was involved? Who was not?==
 * Townshed acts which taxed alot of imports from british like tea, lead, glass, paint, and paper. These tax raises where created by there British rulers to destroy the colonists and give them a hard time in there new home. From these tax raised many revolutions and revolts that pushed British rulers away from the colonists. Even after they move there soldiers into boston, more and more colonists start picking fights with british soldiers. This would start the reason for the Boston Massacre.
