How did the british taxes lead to greater cooperatin among the colonies?
With the British taxes, the colonies were forced to pay, making them less able to use their extra money to employ/trade with other nations, but they definitely didn't lead to more cooperation. If anything, they led to more upset and turmoil, especially the Townsend Acts and the Quartering Act. But what the British asked wasn't really unreasonable- it just seemed so to the colonies because they had become used to a policy of salutary neglect.
What was the effect of the british taxation on the colonies as a whole?
The British were mainly taxing the Massachusetts colony. They also closed down Boston Harbor. Then, no ships could go in or out. The other colonies helped the colony by sending them products. Taxation as a common complaint led to communication and cooperation among the separate colonies.
Why were taxes implemented in the colonies?
Taxes were implemented in the British colonies of North America to help pay for the various wars the Empire was engaged in. Since the American colonies were among the wealthiest in the British Empire it made sense to Parliment to tax them to help pay the bills for the defense of the British Empire. The problem with this was that the colonies had often times had to defend themselves against Native Americans, the French and Spanish. It made little sense to Americans for them to have to pay to once to defend themselves and then pay again to defend an entire empire.
