The Townshend Act, also known as the revenue act of 1767, was the first in a set of acts created by Charles Townshend. This act placed taxes on paper, paint, led, glass, NT that could only be imported from Britain. It was thought that these taxes were indirect enough that colonists would accept them; however, many believe this was a landmark act that led to the beginning stages of the American Revolution.

The British made acts that added taxes for the colonists. The taxes include the Sugar Act, the Stamp Act, the Townshend Acts, The Intolerable Acts, the Tea tax, and the currency act.
These were some of the items on which duties (taxes) were levied by England on its American colonies.
