How did the french and indian war influence the outbreak of the american revolution?

The French and Indian War was, indirectly, one of the factors that influenced the subsequent start of the United States War of Independence 12 years later.

This war was triggered by a series of territorial disputes between Britain and France in its North American colonies, lasted 9 years and culminated in a British victory and the expulsion of the French from their colonies on the continent, which passed into British hands .

The British forces were mostly made up of settlers from the Thirteen Colonies, who saw the French as a threat and, until then, were at ease with their membership in the British Empire.

Once the war was over, with the removal of the French colonies, Britain had to face the costs of the conflict. The metropolis had no better idea than deciding that it was the settlers who had to face the costs of a war that they had not initiated, which unleashed great discontent among the population of the colonies. This, together with the fact that the only threat for which they might need help from Britain had been defeated, and that they had proven themselves to have great military capacity, led to a feeling of independence beginning to emerge among the settlers.

This discontent and this feeling of self-reliance began to manifest itself through protests and boycotts against British tax pressure, generating a wave of minor conflicts that escalated until the definitive start of the War of Independence in 1775.
