Why did the colonies fight the british

one of the reason's why the colonist fought the British is because the colonists weren't being represented in the British parliament (government) and  the king was imposing taxes and levies on the colonists. Have you ever heard the phase Taxation without Representation? I believe that was the major reason why they fought the British. 

Hopefully this helps.
