Why did parliament raise taxes on the colonies after the french and indian war

History

Parliament raised taxes on the colonies after the French and Indian War because the British government was in debt.

During the French and Indian War, British prime minister William Pitt allowed the British military to spend as much money as they wanted in order to defeat the French in North America. This ultimately lead to significant debt for the British govenrment.

The British government turned to the colonists to pay off this debt, as they felt it was only fair that the colonists pay for the protection the British military provided the colonists against the French. However, the colonists did not respond well to these taxes because they had no representation in Parliament. This is why the colonists cried "no taxation without representation" in protest of the British government. This would become one of the main reasons for the colonists declaring independence from the British empire.

College Board Statement: Contact among Europeans, Native Americans, and Africans resulted in the Colombian Exchange and signific
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Facts  that prove the college board statement above true for europeans: The existence of agricultural products that are not native to Europe and the existence of colonies present today in the American continent, such as French Guiana for example.

Things that changed for Europeans because of their contract with the Americans: The Colombian exchange program provided great food stability in Europe, the establishment of large shopping centers with products collected from the colonies, such as the redwood trade found in Portugal.

Explanation:

The Colombian Exchange refers to the exchange of products and people between European and American individuals. This was because when Cristovão Colombo discovered the American continent, it allowed the exploitation of all the resources of that continent, which brought many natural products and riches to the European powers.

As evidence that the Colombian Exchange took place we can mention the existence of agricultural products that are not from Europe. Many fruits, vegetables, animals and spices were removed from America and taken to Europe, which created strong food stability in the old continent and provided the creation of strong shopping centers, such as the redwood trade in Portugual.

The Colombian exchange allowed European domination in America, which can be seen today with the existence of European territories in the American continent, such as French Guiana, in South America.
