A day in the life of a Hamilton Fan

History Lesson By Me( part 2)

The year was 1754. Things had been going well in the British colonies when suddenly, Britain realized something. Their annoying neighbors, the French, were in the New Land.

France was having a good time in the New World. They didn't take up a lot of land cuz they were fur trappers and shit. They didn't want any trouble.

Both France and Britain wanted this tiny place called the Ohio River Valley. They were angry that they both wanted it, but they were war-angry.

One day, the French Ambassador was having a meeting or something like that. Anyway, an Indian named the Half-King from the Iroquois Tribe came. So did George Washington.

"Do not kill that man!" George said. The Half-King did not listen, and killed him anyway.

This made France angry. The rich people of France angrily threw down their croissants and said " HONHONFITEMEBITCH!"

So they asked the Indians for help. The Indians said, " sure." All except for the Iroquois confederacy, that is.

In the end, Britain won. France was kicked out and now they just sadly baked their bread all day.

The colonists were happy that they won, but Britain was kinda mad cuz they had debt. THE didn't know what to do with all the debt till one day some dude was like

"Why don't we tax the colonists! I'm sure they won't mind."

So they decided to do that. But BEFORE they did that, they passed the Proclamation of 1763, which said the colonists couldn't go past the Appalachian Mountains.

The colonists did not like this. They fought a war for land they couldn't even move into!?

Britain saw they were angry.

They said:

"Fuck you. Have some taxes."
