The correct answer is C) to raise money for defending the colonists' territory.

The British felt it was proper to tax the colonists in the 1760 since Britain supplied numerous troops to help fight in the French and Indian War. This war that took place in North America between 1754-1763 was one that saw the French encroaching on land that the colonists believed belonged to them. This resulted in a long and expensive war.

Even though the British were victorious in defending colonial claim, the British government accumulated a massive amount of debt. This is when they turned to the colonies, as they felt it was fair to tax them after spending so much money protecting their land from the French.

What steps were taken worldwide to help germany recover economically ​
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The Dawes Plan/ Young Plan helped Germany to start to rebuild after WW1.

Explanation:

Dawes: The Dawes Plan (as proposed by the Dawes Committee, chaired by Charles G. Dawes) was a plan in 1924 that successfully resolved the issue of World War I reparations that Germany had to pay. It ended a crisis in European diplomacy following World War I and the Treaty of Versailles.

The plan provided for an end to the Allied occupation, and a staggered payment plan for Germany's payment of war reparations. Because the Plan resolved a serious international crisis, Dawes shared the Nobel Peace Prize in 1925 for his work.

It was an interim measure and proved unworkable. The Young Plan was adopted in 1929 to replace it. (from wiki article on Dawes Plan)

Young Plan:The Young Plan was a program for settling Germany's World War I reparations written in August 1929 and formally adopted in 1930. It was presented by the committee headed (1929–30) by American industrialist Owen D. Young, creator and ex-first chairman of the Radio Corporation of America (RCA), who, at the time, concurrently served on the board of trustees of the Rockefeller Foundation, and also had been one of the representatives involved in a previous war-reparations restructuring arrangement—the Dawes Plan of 1924. The Inter-Allied Reparations Commission established the German reparation sum at a theoretical total of 132 billion, but a practical total of 50 billion gold marks. After the Dawes Plan was put into operation in 1924, it became apparent that Germany would not willingly[citation needed] meet the annual payments over an indefinite period of time.[citation needed] The Young Plan reduced further payments by about 20 percent. Although the theoretical total was 112 billion Gold Marks, equivalent to US ca. $27 billion in 1929 (US$ 119 billion in 2020) over a period of 58 years,[1] which would end in 1988, few expected the plan to last for much more than a decade.[2] In addition, the Young Plan divided the annual payment, set at two billion Gold Marks, US $473 million, into two components: one unconditional part, equal to one third of the sum, and a postponable part, equal to the remaining two-thirds, which would incur interest and be financed by a consortium of American investment banks coordinated by J.P. Morgan & Co. (wiki article on young plan)
