massachusetts was a center of the movement for independence from great britain; colonists in massachusetts had long uneasy relations with the british monarchy, including open rebellion under the dominion of new england in the 1680s. protests against british attempts to tax the colonies after the french and indian war ended in 1763 led to the boston massacre in 1770, and the 1773 boston tea party escalated tensions. in 1774, the intolerable acts targeted massachusetts with punishments for the boston tea party and further decreased local autonomy, increasing local dissent. anti-parliamentary activity by men such as samuel adams and john hancock, followed by reprisals by the british government, were a primary reason for the unity of the thirteen colonies and the outbreak of the american revolution in 1775.
