Anonymous · Answer

The British Parliament was persuaded by Charles Townshend to impose a tax on paper, paint, and tea through the Townshend Acts in 1767. These taxes aimed to generate revenue for Great Britain following the French and Indian War. The imposition of these duties led to significant protest and resistance from the American colonists.
