mar 22, 1765 - Stamp Act

Description:

The Stamp act was a result of the debt Britain found themselves in after the French and Indian war. It was a tax on all products that involved printed paper, like newspapers. This tax was the first direct tax given to colonists.
It's important because it was meant with universal outrage due to colonists having no representation in parliament.
