Answer:

Great Britain passed a direct tax on Sugar and Tea, which led to boycotts and a group of delegates to meet to determine how to protest.

Explanation:

The British passed <u>several taxes</u> on the colonists with the purpose of raising money to <em>pay for wars, mantain the military force on the colonies or to help certain companies</em> in Europe avoid bankrupcy.

The Sugar Act, also known as the Revenue Act of 1764, was the earliest of all taxes imposed on the colonies. This tax was put on molasses (<em>a thick brown liquid obtained from raw sugar</em>) that was used to produce rum.

Another good that was not the exception was "tea". The Tea Act of 1773 was not aimed at raising revenue. Its purpose was to prevent the <em>British East India Company</em> from going bankrupt. The British allowed them to import their tea directly to America without paying the duties, which made it possible for them to sell the tea at lower prices. This made the colonists so angry that delegates met to organize the Boston Tea Party. They threw all the tea into the Boston Harbor as a form of protest. The British responded by passing the Intolerable Acts.

This was also know as the Panic of 1873 which started from Vienna, the capital of the Austro-Hungarian capital.

The Panic turned into a recession which spread all over the Austro-Hungarian Empire and eventually the whole of Europe.


The United States which at this time, was dependent on Europe for much of trade quickly got caught in the turmoil.


It was considered the greatest recession in US history until it was overtaken by the Great Depression.

Do you think that certain topics or aspects should be censored in the mass media? Why or why not?
swat32
Yes, this is because not all information is worth spreading. for example even though trumps wife is the first lady i don't believe that she should have been put on blast that shes in playboys. this information could have been with held. and also personal news like a school fight of a bully report in lets say new York  shouldn't be all over the news in Florida. some things are best ether local or not in public news. the only thing that should be spred country wide  new trends, or a newly passed law other then  that everything is irrelevant .
