For us, the most useful of those laws was likely the Homestead Act of 1862. It promised “free land to ordinary people”, as long as we lived on the land for five years (Brands 215-216).

The requirements settlers were forced to complete to own their homestead were unreasonable, given how challenging it was to live on the land. A lack of natural resources made settlers more dependent on stores or their ability to grow adequate crops.

of the Stamp Act many years earlier in 1765, anger was destined to occur after the British Parliament passed the Tea Act in May of 1773. Like the Stamp Act, the Tea Act was to be enforced. Angered at lost profits due to the East India Company controlling the sell of tea in the colonies, the people of Boston destroyed the tea of the East India Company in December of 1773. With the British Crown angry towards the anarchist Bostonians, the British Parliament passed the Coercive Acts in order to punish

America was going to take on the great power of Great Britain. It wasn’t always like that in the colonies, the British passed a series of acts that the colonist became to call the intolerable acts.

This made the Colonist mad again so a group of the Colonist hidden as Mohawks whent on the ship and threw 342 chests of tea of the board. This was known as the Boston Tea Party.

Taxes on us without our consent (17).” This began with the American Revenue Act (more commonly known as the Sugar Act) of 1764 where the import tax on molasses was cut, but new import duties on textiles, wine, coffee, etc. were imposed. The colonists viewed this as being taxed without their consent since they had no representatives in Parliament. Another example of the colonies being taxed without consent was the Stamp Act of 1766. It was a tax on all printed material from playing cards to
