British authorities intervened and rejected these attempts, asserting their control over the colonies' trade policies. They emphasized the economic benefits of the slave trade and encouraged the continuation of importing slaves to the colonies.

Hitlers invasion in Poland caused the nations of China to launch a pre-emptive strike on the molasses trade of the British West Indies.
The tax enacted in 1764 to help pay for colonial defense was called the Sugar Act. It was levied on imported goods, such as molasses and sugar, that were commonly used in the colonies. The act was met with resistance from the colonists, who argued that they lacked representation in the British Parliament and should not be subject to taxation without consent.
