Distribution of PowerThe original 13 colonies were part of and run by

England. King George III was the reigning king.

Distribution of Power

The king sent soldiers to the colonies. The colonists had to let them live in their homes. This was called the Quartering Act. The colonists were getting angry.

Distribution of PowerEngland kept

charging the colonists more and more taxes. The colonists did not get a vote about these taxes. The stamp act was a tax that said every legal paper and all newspapers had to have a special stamp (that had to be paid for) before they could be sold. Then taxes were put on all luxury items. The colonists were really mad now.

Beliefs and IdealsThe patriots did not believe that the English taxes were fair, so they organized a boycott of all British goods.

Beliefs and Ideals

Paul Revere was a patriot. He was in the group of colonists that wanted to be free of England and not have a king.

Many others were loyal to England and King George III. They were called loyalists and did not want things to change.

Individuals, Groups, and InstitutionsPaul Revere belonged to the

Sons of Liberty. It was a secret organization of American patriots in the Thirteen Colonies during the American Revolution. People that were on the side of England and King George said the Sons of Liberty were rebels. They called them "Sons of Violence" and "Sons of Iniquity." Patriots fought against British authority and power. They attacked the property of the gentry, customs officers, East India Company tea, and any people that were speaking up for the

King.
