passage of the stamp act.
In the year 1765 Britain enacted the Stamp Act which placed a government stamp of taxation on all paper documents, such as newspapers and playing cards. The colonists, feeling that they were being unfairly taxed, formed protest groups such as the Sons of Liberty. They would protest English taxing agencies, and in some cases, would demolish the homes of government bureaucrats in charge of taxation. And, it was the first time Parliament tried to tax them.
The passage of the stamp act led directly to the Boston Tea Party. This, in turn, led directly to the Revolutionary War.
