What ideals encouraged colonial resistance to imperial control?

Religion was the key to the founding of a number of the colonies. Many were founded on the principal of religious liberty.

For given religious beliefs, increases in church attendance tend to reduce economic growth. In contrast, for given church attendance, increases in some religious beliefs notably heaven, hell, and an afterlife -- tend to increase economic growth. Charters of royal colonies provided for direct rule by the king. A colonial legislature was elected by property holding males. ... The colonies along the eastern coast of North America were formed under different types of charter, but most developed representative democratic governments to rule their territories.

The king tightened control over the colonies because the war cost a lot so he put taxes to get more money and when the colonists refused to pay the taxes the king got worried about how much loyalty the colonists had so he tightened his grip.

Colonists' resistance to imperial control drew on local experiences of self-government, evolving ideas of liberty, the political thought of the Enlightenment, greater religious independence and diversity, and an ideology critical of perceived corruption in the imperial system.
