Answer
The Stamp Act, a pivotal piece of legislation passed by the British Parliament in 1765, aimed to impose a direct tax on all paper goods used in the American colonies. It sparked widespread resistance among the colonists, who viewed it as an infringement on their inherent rights as British subjects. This discontent eventually culminated in the Boston Tea Party and ultimately led to the American Revolution.
