The Stamp Act of 1765 was a law imposed by the British Parliament that required American colonists to pay a tax on all printed materials, including newspapers, legal documents, and playing cards. This was the first direct tax levied on the colonies, leading to widespread protests and the rallying cry of "no taxation without representation." The colonists felt it violated their rights as Englishmen, ultimately contributing to growing tensions that led to the American Revolution. The act was repealed in 1766 due to colonial resistance and economic pressure.
