Answer:

England decided to repeal the Stamp Act.

Explanation:

The Stamp Act was implemented in the colonies in America for the colonists to pay the taxes to Britain. British were enormous in debt after winning the French and Indian War. To pay off the debt, the British introduced the Stamp Act in the colonies which angered the settlers.

To overcome the protest in colonies, England decided to repeal the Act due to economic pressure. As the colonial boycott rise, the British observed the loss of their market, so they urged Parliament to repeal the Stamp Act. Lord Rockingham abolished Stamp Act and issued the Declaratory Act to support Parliament's authorization over the colonies.

Why did quakers eventually oppose african slavery? how was it opposed to their religious principles?

wariber [46]

<span>This change happened gradually. Quakers were some of the first people in the Americas to own slaves. However, objections were brought up by Dutch Quakers in the 18th century that changed the Christian sect's outlook on owning slaves. From these objections, Quakers gradually stopped owning slaves and became some of the most vocal abolitionists. The Quaker biblical justification was in the verse Matthew 7:12 which stated that Christians had a responsibility to adhere to a higher standard of living morally. The Quakers did not believe owning slaves was a part of living up to these standards.</span>
