The Stamp Act of 1765 was a pivotal moment in American history, marking one of the first instances of organized colonial resistance against British taxation without representation. Its repeal helped galvanize the movement toward American independence, shaping the principles of self-governance and individual rights that underpin modern democratic systems. Today, the legacy of the Stamp Act is reflected in ongoing discussions about taxation, representation, and the balance of power between government and citizens.
