    In the 1760s, Great Britain began tightening controls over its American colonies in the wake of the Seven Years War, often referred to as the French and Indian War. British victory on the one hand gave the Britain more land in North America but on the other hand gave it more debt to collect from the colonies in the form of increased taxes. Additionally, Native American warfare continued after 1763, requiring British troops to actively police the borders of the colonies. These new controls eventually led to the American Revolution, as after the 1760s the colonists began to see the British as overlords rather than protectors.
