In the 1700s what did colonists do with the city of boston
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Explanation:

"[1733 The Molasses Act levied a 6 pence tax per gallon of molasses, not only to increase revenue but also to interfere with the French in the Caribbean. This was the first time that England truly affected trade, livelihood and businesses in Boston and the colonies.

1754-1763 The French and Indian War (the American theater of the Seven Years War) was a battle for colonial domination in North America, the Caribbean and India between England and France.

1764 The passage of the Sugar Act allows the British government to raise revenue from the colonies. This was the first instance of the idea of “no taxation without representation” as no colonial representative had agreed to these taxes.

1765 The Stamp Act, the first direct tax on the American colonies, was passed. Printed materials were taxed, including newspapers, legal documents, dice and playing cards.

1766 The Declaratory Act was passed to affirm Parliament’s power to legislate for the colonies “in all cases whatsoever”.

1767 The Townshend Acts levied a tax on glass, lead, paint, paper and tea, in addition to installing three new Vice Admiralty courts to directly prosecute smugglers.

1768 On May 9, John Hancock’s ship, the Liberty, was seized by British Customs Officials in Boston Harbor.

1768 The British government dispatched troops to Boston reacting to the opposition to the Townshend Acts.

1769 Thomas Hutchinson is named the Governor-Ex-Officio of Massachusetts after Governor Bernard’s departure.

1770 On March 5, after several weeks of tensions, five innocent Bostonians were killed in what would become known as “The Boston Massacre”. An argument between a wigmaker’s apprentice and a British officer over an unpaid bill escalated into a mob forming and taunting of a British Regular on watch at the Customs House.

1773, December 16 More than 5000 people from Boston and the neighboring towns pushed their way into the Old South Meeting House for a final town meeting about the fate of the East India Company tea. The Sons of Liberty sent Francis Rotch, owner of the brig Beaver and the Dartmouth, to request passage of these vessels from Governor Hutchinson. Rotch returns to inform the assembled crowd that Hutchinson has refused their request. Samuel Adams stands to proclaim that “This meeting can do nothing more to save this country!” which was presumed to be a code to start the tea destruction. Several hundred men loosely disguised as “Mohawks” descended upon Griffin’s Wharf, boarded the three ships and proceeded to dump 340 chests of East India Company tea into Boston Harbor. This event would be named the Boston Tea Party."]

One of the obligations of the federal government to the states is to ensure a republican form of government

The Supreme Court established the rule in Luther v. Borden 1 that disputes arising under this provision are political, not judicial, in nature and that "it lies with Congress to determine whether the government is the established one in a State... as well as its republican character."

In Texas v. White 3, it was decided that the President's decision to establish temporary governments after the war was justified, if at all, only as an exercise of his authority as Commander-in-Chief and that these governments were only to be regarded as temporary ones to carry out governmental duties while Congress considered its options.
