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.
