A quick definition of stamp acts:

Stamp Acts: The Stamp Acts were laws in England that made it necessary to put special stamps on important papers like contracts, deeds, and bills. These stamps were used to show that a tax had been paid.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Stamp Acts were laws passed in England that required and regulated the use of stamps on important documents such as deeds, contracts, legal papers, bills, and other documents.

Examples: One example of a Stamp Act was the Stamp Act of 1765, which required colonists in America to purchase special stamps for all legal documents, newspapers, and even playing cards. Another example was the British Stamp Act of 1712, which required stamps on various legal documents in England.

Explanation: The Stamp Acts were designed to raise money for the British government and to assert its authority over the colonies. By requiring stamps on important documents, the government could ensure that they were properly recorded and taxed. The Stamp Act of 1765 was particularly controversial in America, as it was seen as an unfair tax on the colonies without their consent. This led to widespread protests and eventually the American Revolution.
