What motivated Boudica's initial attack on Roman territories?

Boudica was motivated by a combination of personal grievances, after suffering severe injustices at the hands of the Romans, and the desire to resist the harsh Roman rule imposed on her people, which included land confiscation, increasing taxes, and disrespect for the Iceni's sovereignty. Her leadership was also fueled by a broader discontent among the Celtic tribes over Roman domination.
