Explanation:

The French and Indian War (1754-1763) was a conflict fought between the United Kingdom and its American colonies against France and its Indian allies. Part of the larger European known as the Seven Years War, it ended with the defeat of the French and the Indian, after which the French American colonies became British possessions. The war left both countries financially ruined. In order to raise money, the British looked towards their American colonies as possible sources of revenue. A series of acts establishing taxes and asserting British control over the colonies were enacted in the following years. Some of them were:

- The Tea Act (1773), which enabled the sale of British tea on the American colonies, with the tax being paid by the colonials. Resistance led to the Boston Tea Party, where tea was dumped overboard by enraged colonists.

- The Intolerable Act (1774), which punished the Massachusetts colonists for their participation on the Boston Tea Party.

- The Stamp Act (1765), which imposed taxes directly on the colonists by forcing them to use British-produced paper.

- The Quartering Act (1765), which required the colonists to give quarter to British trooops.

- The Royal Proclamation (1763), which prohibited American colonists from settling beyond the Appalachian Mountains.
