The British Parliament imposed taxes on the colonists after 1763 mainly to pay off debts incurred during the French and Indian War. The national debt doubled due to the war, leading the British to seek financial contributions from their American colonies. This tax imposition fueled resentment among the colonists and was a significant factor in the lead-up to the American Revolution.
