Why where the townshend acts passed

History
1 answer:
marusya05 [52]3 years ago
8 0

Great Britain wanted to use the money from the Townshend Acts to pay judges and governors to keep them loyal.

The Townshend Acts created new taxes on products and also created new laws that the colonists deemed unnecessary. With these acts, British officials could now search the homes of colonists whenever they pleased, new courts were made, and a tax board in Boston was also made.

One of the biggest problems the colonists had with the Townshend Acts was the taxes on products. Products like tea and paper now had a tax on them, which angered the colonists. They felt that they should not be taxed, as they had nobody to fight for them in the British Parliament. This is known as "taxation without representation," which was a big reason for the colonies wanting their independence. This caused the colonists to boycott a lot of the products that were being imported from Great Britain.

Answer:

Economic and environment issues are most challenging for developing countries.

Explanation:

For a developing country, the issues of economic and employment are the most dangerous and challenging as the growth of all the other factors depends on this.

Economic and employment related issues can hamper the growth of the citizens which can further result in the slow development (growth) of the nation as well.

If the people of a developing country are not able to get the jobs it simply means that they are not creating per capita income for the income and thus putting the burden on the economy which is not a good for a developing country.
