Answer:

The correct answer is C. The Stamp Act Congress met in 1765 to discuss how to respond to the new taxes.

Explanation:

The Stamp Act Congress was a meeting held on October 19, 1765, in New York City, to discuss the newly created Stamp Act, whose passing in the British Parliament did not include representatives of the American colonies.

At the instigation of James Otis, Massachusetts demanded the holding of an intercolonial general assembly. Nine out of 13 colonies sent 27 representatives to the Stamp Act Congress held at the Federal Hall in New York from 7 to 25 October 1765. The delegates adopted John Dickinson's Declaration of Rights and Grievances and sent letters and petitions to the King and the Parliament. The emphasis was on the repeal of the Stamp Act, but also on the fact that settlers were not allowed to participate in the election of deputies in London. Only colonial assemblies had the right to levy new taxes in America. They also criticized the use of Admiralty Courts to enforce the Stamp Act and punish offenders. In reality, the boycotts had more effect than the petitions, and the law was finally repealed on March 18, 1766. But the question of the political representation of the Americans was not settled. And Parliament's determination to charge taxes to the settlers remained intact, announcing the American Revolution.

AVprozaik [17]
They were colonies of great Britain
Great Britain had taken over the areas and declared them to be British spheres of interests following the decline of the Ottoman empire. Egypt specifically was of prime significance to Britain as it was the new route to India and the colonies in the Eastern coast of Africa.
