=To Tie It All Together=



Throughout American History control has always been the spark that ingnited a great and sudden change in many of the aspects of our government that are present today. The great American Revolution was started and fueled by the well known phrase, "No taxation without representation", which when more closely looked at, is actually an angry realization that Great Britain has too much control of the colonies. After the revolution, our government had tremendous issues trying to control numerous colonies with extremely different agendas. Overall, at least for American History, control has been a major catalyst in working toward the United States that we are familiar with today. Whether it be the Stamp Act, the Townshend Acts, the Tea Act, the Coercive (Intolerable) Acts, etc., the colonies were tried many times by Britain for superior control, but the frenzy for independence, and the strong will of the colonists prevailed above allI, leading them on the road to everlasting freedom and independence.

If any of this has left you confused, feel free to look back through the pages and make your own assumtions as to how and why our country is the way it is today.
