On March 22, 1765, the Stamp Act was created. The Stamp Act was a new way to tax the people by requiring them to pay a tax and have a stamp on every paper document bought or sold. Colonists started to get mad because they were taxed even for the most simple tasks. 10 years later, the colonists rose in armed rebellion against the british. The colonists insisted that is was unconstitutional and reverted to mob violence, to intimidate the stamp collectors into resigning. The king wanted to take away some of the stamps on papers, but keep the stamps on dice and playing cards. The people were not happy with this, and the king decided to end the whole thing on 18 March
