In this episode, John explains the factors that began to drive a wedge between the 13 British North American Colonies that would eventually become the United States and Great Britain. John details the economic, political and geographic elements of the relationship between Britain and the colonies that made it increasingly difficult for the two to coexist as they had up through the mid-18th century. Land disputes, arguments over trade and mercantilism and strained relations with Native Americans are all contributing factors to the deteriorating relationship that culminates in the French and Indian War, which John also discusses.
