Aj · Answer 1

The Stamp Act of 1765 was the act passed by the British government that stated that the colonists had to pay tax on all printed materials. It is also the first internal tax charged on American colonists by the British government. The act arrived at a time when debt from the Seven Years' War was one of the British Empire's problem and it was thought up that North American colonies could be a source of revenue.
