Question

explain how the famous phrase "taxation without representation" Lead to the formation of the sons of liberty and ultimately to the American Revolutionary War? (10 points)

Answer 1

A special meeting was held in New York in October 1765, to which nine colonies sent representatives. At the meeting, the representatives drew up a petition to protest the tax. The colonists insisted that only the colonial legislatures, their elected representatives, had the right to make laws and levy taxes. The cry went out throughout the land, “No taxation without representation.” 
The meeting was historic because it was the first time that people from different colonies got together to protest the government. Secret societies began to form. The Sons of Liberty was the most famous of these societies.
