They didn't allow people to settle and build houses past an imaginary line along the Appalachian Mountains.

The British passed it so they wouldn't have complications with the Native Americans because it was their land. It was to prevent war and people being hurt.

The colonists were angry that Britain had limited the area for housing, though some colonists got away with certain houses.]]> 2017-01-25 21:57:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jacevedo21/sghzxpuig13m/wish/149476886 Quartering Act jacevedo21 https://padlet.com/jacevedo21/sghzxpuig13m/wish/149478008 It was when colonists were forced to house British soldiers and give them food and resources.

The British passed it so that British soldiers could have free housing in the colonies.

The colonists were angry with this because there were British soldiers in their house using their things without paying for them. The colonists worked hard for those resources and they just took them away.]]> 2017-01-25 22:05:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jacevedo21/sghzxpuig13m/wish/149478008 Stamp Act jacevedo21 https://padlet.com/jacevedo21/sghzxpuig13m/wish/149478736 When the British taxed people on all legal documents like newspapers, marriage documents, and other legal papers.

The British solely passed this act to prove that they could still get revenue out of the colonies.

The colonists thought it was dumb to be taxed on things like newspapers, mail, and commercial and legal documents. They got really angry because they thought it was overkill.]]> 2017-01-25 22:11:41 UTC https://padlet.com/jacevedo21/sghzxpuig13m/wish/149478736
