The Stamp Act was approved by the British in 1765 imposing taxes on all American colonists requiring them to pay taxes represented by a stamp on every piece of printed paper they used. Legal documents, licenses, newspapers, publications, etc. Colonists reacted with boycotts, riots and attacks to tax collectors.  Although the Stamp Act occurred years before the Declaration of Independence, it was a critical  issue that provoked the American Revolution.

Which was an obstacle to the settlement of the American West?
sukhopar [10]
Homesteaders faced the problem of constructing shelter very quickly. To do so, they often constructed simple cabins. Some also made use of what was in their environment and built sod houses. These houses had the advantage of being inexpensive to build, as the homesteaders only needed to buy materials for constructing the windows, a door, and sometimes a roof, and sod was cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
