Lives of the Majority Change Slowly
It wasn’t until the late 1700s that Enlightenment ideas spread through Europe’s peasant classes.

masses to revolt. This process would come much later in central and eastern Europe.

Britain Becomes a Global Power
At the time of the American Revolution, Britain was a world superpower. It had begun to build its
empire and already controlled trade with much of North America, the West Indies, and India.
George III came to power in 1760 and was determined to reassert royal prerogatives.

The English Colonies in the Mid-1700s
In Britain’s American colonies, economic life was booming by 1750. Although Britain tried to
regulate trade and other aspects of life in the colonies, there was a sense of semi-independence
on the part of the colonists, who tried to control their own affairs.

Colonists Express Discontent
When King George III imposed taxes on the colonies to help pay for their own defense, the
colonists rebelled. Tensions escalated and finally broke out into war. Inspired by Enlightenment
ideas about the natural rights of man and the right to revolt against an unjust government, the
Second Continental Congress declared independence from Britain.

A New Constitution
When the Articles of Confederation proved too weak to establish effective government, some of the
nation’s leaders drafted the Constitution based on Enlightenment ideas of Locke, Montesquieu,
and Rousseau. The new government would recognize some basic rights of the people and
establish three branches of government to create checks and balances. This document served as
a model for constitutions created by other countries.
