Answer:

The English Parliament often passed laws that favoured English traders and factories rather than American people of the colonies. The American colonies, therefore, raised the slogan No Taxation without Representation.

In 1774 CE, representatives from twelve colonies, met at a Congress at Philadelphia to protest against the British.
