USA HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -French and Indian War and the End of Salutary Neglect 1754-1775. As a result of debts accrued during to the French and Indian War, England gradually ended their policy of salutary neglect toward the colonies, eventually leading to the American Revolution.

Detailed explanation-2: -Historians frequently link the reversal of the policy of salutary neglect with the conclusion of the French and Indian War (1754–63) and the desire by many in Parliament to recoup the considerable costs of defending the colonies with British forces through revenue-generating enforcement of trade restrictions.

Detailed explanation-3: -The salutary neglect period ended as a consequence of the French and Indian War, also known as the Seven Years War, from years 1755 to 1763. This caused a large war debt that the British needed to pay off, and thus the policy was destroyed in the colonies.

Detailed explanation-4: -Salutary neglect was a large contributing factor that led to the American Revolutionary War. Since the imperial authority did not assert the power that it had, the colonists were left to govern themselves. These essentially sovereign colonies soon became accustomed to the idea of self-control.

Detailed explanation-5: -The British policy of salutary neglect toward the American colonies inadvertently contributed to the American Revolution. This was because during the period of salutary neglect, when the British government wasn’t enforcing its laws in the colonies, the colonists became accustomed to governing themselves.
