Question

Describe the main causes of the British defeat in America.
Or Describe in detail the reasons for British failure in the American freedom
struggle.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Britain also needed money to pay for its war debts. The King and Parliament believed they had the right to tax the colonies. ... Many colonists felt that they should not pay these taxes, because they were passed in England by Parliament, not by their own colonial governments.

Answer 2

In October 1781, the war virtually came to an end when General Cornwallis was surrounded and forced to surrender the British position at Yorktown, Virginia. Two years later, the Treaty of Paris made it official: America was independent.
