22 März 1765 Jahr - Stamp Act

Beschreibung:

The Stamp Act was a tax that was imposed on all paper goods within the colonies. Britain's justification for the Stamp Act was that the money would be used to protect the colonists. The colonists viewed the Stamp Act as an attempt to control them. The introduction of the Stamp Act caused large organized riots to form within the colonies. Angry mobs targeted specific people like stamp distributors and colonial officials. The large-scale opposition to the Stamp Act led to its repeal in March 1766.
