After the French and Indian war the British had wasted a lot of money on the war so they decided to tax the colonist to pay the cost of the war since they now owned the land they took from the Indians during the war Hope this helps :)
The Seven Years' War, a global conflict known in America as the French and Indian War, ended with the signing of the Treaty of Paris by France, Great Britain, and Spain. In the early 1750s, France's expansion into the Ohio River valley repeatedly brought the country into armed conflict with the British colonies.
