Don't worry, muricaland got their Independence because they wanted to expand westwards and be assholes to indigenous people wich the Crown forbid.

No, America got their independence because the wealthiest didn't want to pay tax to England.

And I seriously doubt the Crown wanted them to stop expanding or treat the natives better before that.

You should read that

If you actually think England would have honored those treaties to stop expanding tho...

Surprise! They'd have broken them just like America made and broke them.

They have, yes but not as much as they were after the independence.
