What was the stamp act for?

The Stamp Act of 1765 was a direct tax imposed by the British Parliament on the American colonies. It required that all paper documents in the colonies be produced on stamped paper that had been purchased from the British government. The stamps were to be paid for in British currency, which required the colonies to import British currency rather than using their own currency. The act also required the use of stamped paper for legal documents, newspapers, pamphlets, and other printed materials.

The Stamp Act was met with widespread protest in the colonies. Colonists argued that the tax was unfair because they were not represented in the British Parliament. They also argued that the tax was a violation of their rights as British subjects. The protests eventually led to the repeal of the Stamp Act in 1766, but the act had a lasting impact on the relationship between the colonies and Great Britain.
