Stationing Britsh troops in America was related to the British taxation of the colonists because it was very costly to get the troops there and to support them. So, Britain needed another source of revenue to support their troops, and the best source they could find was the money the colonists had. So Britain taxed the colonists with various taxes such as the Stamp Act and the Townshend Act in order to aquire a new source of revenue in order to fund their troops presence in the colonies.
