Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation: The reasons why Boston tensions increased between 1765 and 1770 began with the establishment of the Housing Law, enacted by the British Crown, which consisted in contributing to the maintenance of the British army, which caused discomfort among settlers who already they were being bothered by previous laws and taxes. However, another law called the Stamp law followed, where settlers had to pay taxes on printed papers, to pay debts incurred by the crown. This further heated the moods of the settlers. However, this decree did not prosper and was repealed. Then followed the Townshend laws of 1767, where the settlers had to pay taxes on glass, paint, lead, etc.  . The main tension was concentrated in Boston, where the relations between settlers and soldiers were unbearable, and from the tension, the violence passed, which unleashed in the Boston Massacre, which took place on March 5, 1770, leaving 5 people dead.
