The Stamp Act of 1765 required the colonists to pay a tax on every printed sheet or piece of paper they used. The money would be used to pay for any defense of the American colonies within the territory of the Appalachian Mountains. The Act was wildly unpopular, prompting Parliament to table the bill and pursue other taxes.
