The Stamp Act was passed by the British Parliament on March 22, 1765. The new tax was imposed on all American colonists and required them to pay a tax on every piece of printed paper they used. Ship's papers, legal documents, licenses, newspapers, other publications, and even playing cards were taxed.

Answer:

  The colonist rejected the act considering it as violations of their rights and the stamp tax distributors were intimidated into resigning their commissions, so the tax was never effectively collected.

Explanation:

  The Stamp Act of 1765 was an act of the Parliament of Great Britain that imposed a direct tax on the colonies in North America and required that the printed materials in there should be produced in London.

  Its purpose was to pay for British military troops stationed in the American colonies after the French Indian War. The act was very unpopular among the colonist and even between some Englishman.

  The Stamp Act Congress was a meeting held in New York consisting of representatives of some British colonies with the purpose of protest against the Act. It was the first gathering of elected representatives from several of the American colonies.

  I hope this answer helps you.

When playing chess, is the King the most powerful piece? How does that relate to the feudal system in Medieval Europe?
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

The king is not the most important piece because it is rarely used, like in the feudal system, where his knights and peasants do most of the work, like knights and pawns on a chess board.

Explanation:

All you need is some knowledge about chess, and feudalism.

In feudal Europe, the monarchy (mainly the king) gave out pieces of land to nobles and aristocrats and taxed them. They would then live in the land, and give it out to knights and peasants. The peasants would be taxed in money and crops in return for the housing and farmland. The knights would generally be given more land, but not by much, and they would protect the land they live on, and if called on by the king, would leave and protect the kingdom. The king got rich, while his pawns worked and died in his name.

Which rhetorical element is included in this passage from president lincolns second inaugural address? ethos pathos theme thesis
enot [183]
You could say that he appealed to pathos. It's an appeal to emotion while ethos is to credibility. He used pathos to speak about sad things like secession and about the evils of slavery and why it should end. He didn't have to appeal to credibility because he was already the president so everyone knew why he was competent.

2. What distinct sections of the United States developed after the War of<br>1812?​
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer: 1. Manufacturing

2. Banking

3. Construction

Explanation: Though the War of 1812 severely damaged the American economy because of the British blockade, the aftermath gave a dramatic boost to certain sections that helped rebuild the American economy.

The British blockade of the American coast created a shortage of cotton cloth, leading to the development of American manufacturing capabilities, with the creation of a cotton-manufacturing industry at Waltham, Massachusetts.

The Americans were incapable of financing the war and this exposure of the nation's financial weaknesses fueled the decision by Congress to charter the Second Bank of the United States in 1816.

The war also encouraged the construction of the Erie Canal, a project that was built to promote commercial links but could also be used for military purposes if there was ever a need for it.
