>I have read the list of grievances of my colonist and will call for a meeting between representatives of theirs and members of parliament in order to resolve their issues through discussion in London
There. Thats it. Thats literally all he had to do to prevent losing his American empire. Reminder that no one wanted independence until AFTER he rejected the olive branch petition. Even after the Colonist and the British Army fought a bloody battle in the outskirts of Boston, the colonist STILL wrote to their king and begged him to intervene and he still somehow fucked it all up.

Happy Independence Day faggot!
