Diary Entry: 3

December 19, 1774

Dear Diary,

Wow, it's been a really long time since I wrote, but I have been very busy. The Thirteen Colonies are causing much trouble to the British:

Dear King George III,

Us, Thirteen Colonies, are very upset with your government. We dislike your lack of freedom for us North Americans and how you have started taxes. And also how you have disagreed with our wishes from expanding our colony and moving west. We are warning you that we are not pleased with your government. So if you do something that does not please us, you better watch your back.

Sincerely,

The Thirteen Colonies

Well, that wasn't the most pleasant letter, but I guess that they are just upset with Britain's behavior to them. 

The British were struggling to hold North America together, and seeing this letter, their government passed some laws. I am not sure what they were though...

Happy New Year!!! Considering all the trouble that has passed last year, I'm pretty happy that it's all over. But I wouldn't be too sure of that, because already so much conflict has been in the air this year, and only 3 days have passed. 

March 28, 1775

Wow, so many things have happened this year. There were some laws that the government has passed, and most of these laws have included taxes. These laws have affected most colonies, but have affected the Thirteen Colonies most. And they were planning to revolt. Here is a letter that was sent from the Thirteen Colonies to Nova Scotia and Quebec:

Dear people of Quebec/Nova Scotia,

We would like to inform you that we will be hosting a Continental Congress, where we will discuss our plans to revolt against the British. 

Sincerely,

The Thirteen Colonies

But Nova Scotia and Quebec didn't want to attend this meeting, because they weren't harmed by the British legislation.  

I hope this war doesn't start soon, I was already horrified by the battle against New France and Britain.

I'll write to you as soon as possible.

*No promises*

Love,

Kristen Taylor
