The Townshend Acts, enacted in 1767, imposed taxes on various imported goods to the American colonies, including glass, tea, paper, and paint. The revenue generated was intended to pay colonial governors and judges, reducing their dependence on colonial assemblies. This taxation without representation sparked significant unrest and contributed to rising tensions between the colonies and Britain, ultimately leading to the American Revolution. The acts were met with widespread protests and boycotts, which played a crucial role in uniting the colonies against British rule.
