Before American gained its independence, it was a colony of Great Britain and Great Britain's policy is that their colonies can only trade with them and no other nation. So, when the American Revolution started and a boycott was started, then U.S. would have to rely on themselves for resources or see if any other nations are willing to trade with them.
declared a boycott of british goods. Thank me later;)
The boycott of 1765 was primarily a response to the Stamp Act imposed by the British government, which required colonists to pay taxes on printed materials. American colonists viewed this tax as a violation of their rights, as they had no representation in Parliament. The boycott aimed to pressure British merchants and the government to repeal the tax by refusing to purchase British goods, ultimately fostering a sense of unity among the colonies against British taxation policies. This collective action laid the groundwork for further resistance and the eventual push for independence.
Continental Congress
The call to boycott British trade was notably championed by the American colonists in the lead-up to the American Revolutionary War. In response to British taxation without representation, such as the Stamp Act and Townshend Acts, colonial leaders organized boycotts of British goods in the 1760s and 1770s. This movement gained momentum through organizations like the Sons of Liberty and was aimed at pressuring Britain to repeal its oppressive policies. Ultimately, these boycotts played a significant role in fostering American unity and resistance against British rule.
