Why did many colonies favor declaring independence?

Answer 1

Because all were affected in varying degrees by negative British laws.

The majority of Americans believed they were on par with their English counterparts during the period of English rule; however, in the 1760s, England passed laws specifically designed to affect America, most of which were viewed as "coercive" by the colonists.

The colonies may have enjoyed their independence as corporate entities granted by England's charters, but none of them enjoyed the thought that the liberties guaranteed by those charters were gradually disappearing.

The fact that each individual called himself an American, regardless of the colony they originated from, was ultimately what united them.
