form their own country?

A. Great Britain separated the colonial governments into three
branches.

B. Great Britain did not allow the colonists to participate in
government.

C. Great Britain ignored the colonies during the French and Indian
War.

D. Great Britain planned to sell several of the colonies to the French.

Answer 1

I think it is B. Explanation: The colonies were ruled by Great Britian, and their form of government included the British Parliament. However, none of the colonists were allowed to be in Parliament, so they felt it was unfair that they were being taxed without have proper representation in Parliament. (“No taxation without representation!”). Thus, B is the correct answer.
