The causes were the following: England annulled the laws established by South Carolina and Virginia, controlled the courts of justice ordering that the customs authorities enter unauthorized homes and warehouses where it was felt that they could find contraband goods, the British placed taxes on sugar, coffee, wine, potassium, iron and silk, called the Law of Sugar.
