The correct answer is to raise revenue from the American colonies.

After the French and Indian War, the British government was in severe debt. This resulted in the government needing an additional revenue stream. With this in mind, the British government turned to the colonies since they technically protected the interests of the American colonists against the French during the French and Indian War. However, colonists were upset about this law because it was passed without a representative from the colonies having a voice in the British parliament. This would be just the beginning of events that lead to America's decision to declare independence from the United States.

Explain two similarities between china and Japan in their relations with European traders during the period between 1450 and 175
Rasek [7]

Both the Chinese and the Japanese felt that the Europeans were barbarians.  They were particularly repelled by the smell of these foreigners who ate much fattier diets and who did not typically wash very often.  They also felt the Europeans lacked subtlety and were rather crass in their behaviors.

The similarities, however, largely end there.  The Chinese tried to simply ignore the Europeans.  They were able to do this to some degree because the Europeans did not have anything they wanted.  They were willing to take European silver in exchange for tea and otherwise leave the Europeans alone.  This worked until around the time of the Opium Wars when the Europeans forced China to open itself more.
