I wonder why the colonies were in that war to begin with. Was it because GB dragged them in kicking and screaming, and the people living there had no say in the matter?

That's kinda what a colony is when you think about it. A colony that can refuse the colonial overlords is.... well.... not a colony 🤣.

Colonies do lead to revolutions in most cases, yes.
