The British tax things that the American colonies made objects that all from paper and included with special documents.

The British taxed the Americans without their permission, they don't have a say because they had no representation in the British Parliament.

The colonies thought it was not fair for the tax representation, so they held a meeting with all 13 colonies called the Stamp Act Congress in New York in October 1765.

The Colonies put their words into action and boycotted British goods. After that, England eventually ended the Stamp Act the following year due to struggling British merchants.

The Stamp Act caused strain and problems in the relationships between colonies. After ten years, the colonists rose in resistance and being with a war. This is also why the Samp Act caused American Revolution.
