Why Significant?
The Proclamation of 1763 was important, as it was one of the first events to cause the colonists to get angry at Great Britain. One reason for this anger was because of the fact that colonists wanted better farmland than what the 13 colonies provided them, and another reason was because they did not want Great Britain to boss them around. Because of this, the Proclamation failed its purpose.

The townshends acts were a series of regulations passed by the British parliament in 1767, that taxed the American colonists on glass, lead, paint, paper, tea, and chinaware. It was meant as a replacement for the Stamp Act after it’s repeal, and was an attempt to make up for the losses incurred by repealing the aforementioned act. The funds raised were used to pay the salaries of higher up colonial government officials

Why Significant? 

The Townshend acts were important because they were another example of the British government trying to raise money by taxing the colonists. It was another act that reminded the colonists that they were subject to the far-away British crown with only their own interests at heart. This in result caused more protests from the colonists, as well as increasing the tension between the colonists and the British parliament. The British sent troops to occupy colonial cities in response, which led to the Boston Massacre, Boston Tea Party, and Intolerable Acts.

1. Boston Port Act: Directly after the tea party, the colonists were punished by closing the boston ports. They would remain closed until the colonists paid for the tea they spilled. The colonists saw this as unfair because it was only a couple of the citizens and they were all being punished.

2. Massachusetts Government Act: The Governor, who was appointed by Great Britain, was given more power, and the colonists were given less. The government officials that used to be elected would now be appointed by the governor. There could only be one town meeting a year. This infuriated the colonists because this meant they might do this to all colonists,

3. Administration of Justice Act: The governor would be allowed to move the capital trials against government officials to England. The colonists thought this was wrong because it gave way too much power to the officials and they thought it would let them get away with murder

4. Quartering Act: Colonies had to provide shelter for british soldiers.

5. Quebec Act: The Quebec act was an act to give the french people more rights as citizens. A new governor and council was appointed, and put a french civil code in place. Also, recognition was given to the Roman Catholic Church in Quebec along with the boundaries of Quebec were extended. .This was significant because it angered the Patriots in the 13 colonies and helped speed up the process of the start of the American Revolution because they were not getting those rights that they deserved.
