Why did many colonists fight the British during the American Revolution?

  1. Religious freedom

  2. Taxation without representation

  3. Freedom of speech

  4. The right to bear arms

The correct answer is: Taxation without representation

During the American Revolution, colonists fought against British rule due to the unfair policy of taxation without representation. This means that the British Parliament passed laws and taxes without allowing representatives from the colonies to participate in the decision-making process. This lack of representation was seen as a violation of the colonists' rights and a form of oppression. It was not related to religious freedom (Option A), freedom of speech (Option C), or the right to bear arms (Option D).
