Answer 2

They resisted the efforts of the British to tighten control through smuggling and joining groups of protestors.

Step-by-step explanation:

Residents of South Carolina, like the other twelve English colonies in North America, were outraged by the new taxes imposed by the Britain. In the fall of 1765, representatives of South Carolina participated in the Congress in New York dedicated to the Stamp Act adopted by the British Parliament, and which developed a unified attitude of the colonists to pressure from Great Britain. Five people represented South Carolina at the First Continental Congress in 1774, and in January 1775, after the royal governor dissolved the colonial assembly, the patriots created a provisional government in the state known as the "General Assembly of South Carolina." At the same time, a significant portion of the population of South Carolina remained loyal to the British crown.
