Taxation without representation refers to the British Parliament's disregard of the colonies. The colonists believed in real representation: a representative must be from the same region that he is representing. However, the members of Parliament had never been to the colonies. They simply assumed the colonial support (virtual representation). The Stamp Act was the first revenue oriented tax that Britain had imposed on the colonies. The colonists were not accustomed to external taxes, as they had a system of self-taxation. This tax caused great opposition in the colonies.
