Why Significant?Franklin's plan called for the formation of a permanent federation of colonies, as a means to reform colonial-imperial relations, and to more effectively address shared colonial interests. Despite the support of those who attended the Albany Congress, the Albany Plan of Union was rejected by King George II and by all of the individual colonial governments that considered its adoption. The plan was a significant milestone, however, as it marked the first official attempt to develop intercolonial cooperation among the American colonies.

A confederation of native American tribes led by Pontiac was launched in 1763 because they were dissatisfied with British policies. They fought from 1763-1766. There were several battles in the Great Lakes region between the British and the natives. This mostly led to a stalemate where in the end Natives conceded British sovereignty, but compelled British policy changes.

Why Significant?
Demonstrated how the native groups came together to attempt to combat the ever-expanding territory. The rebellion is also significant because it made relations harsher with the Native Americans and British. The aftermath led to a dialogue between natives and the British and was also a reason for the Proclamation of 1763 which is the next event on the timeline.

The stamp act was an act implemented by the British Parliament upon the colonists. This act made it so that there was taxation of all colonial commercial and legal papers, newspapers, pamphlets, cards, almanacs, and dice. The British Parliament did this because they wanted to raise their revenue through taxes. In other words, this means that all legal documents from the colonies had to have a stamp, thus the stamp act, and the result was that every piece of paper the colonists used was taxed by the British.

The stamp act was so significant because it helped pay for the effects after the French and Indian war, or otherwise known as the 7 years war. A lot of the money gathered from the Stamp Act would be used to maintain several forts of British soldiers in North America to maintain and keep peace between Native Americans and the colonists. Although it did help with paying off the 7 years war, it stirred up many protests in the colonies because the colonists were sick of having their taxes through the roof when themself can barely afford to live.

What is it? 

The declaratory act replaced the stamp act, it stated that the British parliament had the right to tax the American colonies directly. This act also declared that Parliament could pass any law they wanted if they felt that there was something directly affecting the British subjects, and the colonists had to obey it. Basically this act gave parliament almost complete power over anything in the colonies. 

This was significant because it caused a revolt amongst the colonies as they did want Parliament to be able to give themselves complete power over the colonies. It drew a great deal of attention to the desire of self government and a limit to parliament's control over the colonies.
