    rich assholes who didnt like the monarchy.

    Rich assholes who felt the monarchy was taking their money. All talk of justification aside, it’s entirely possible they took this stance simply because they were 3000 miles away, with a dangerous ocean crossing required to close that gap, and felt that made ignoring the tax bill worth the risk.
