Right against taxation without representation also asserted by American colonists best describes the given passage.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Americans were deprived of this right and this turned out to be one of the reasons of American Revolution. The basic idea was that if they were supposed to pay the axes then they should have some say in terms of adequate representation.

The given passage from the English Bill of Rights (1689) essentially talks about the right against taxation without representation which was asserted by American colonists. This essentially means that when the government imposes the tax on the citizens but does not give them political voice.

masya89 [10]
One of the most significant events in history happened in the early seventh century in the deep interior of the Arabian Peninsula.
