Question 14
In the context of the American Revolution, the actions King George was blamed for were called "Grievances". The Declaration of Independence lists the grievances against the King. "Complaints" is too general, "Protestations" refers to formal declarations of dissent (not the term for the King's blamed actions), and "Objections" is also not the specific term used.
The Declaratory Act of 1766 stated that the British government (King and Parliament) had the complete authority to make laws binding the colonies in all cases. Option a is incorrect (the Proclamation of 1763 restricted Ohio Valley settlement). Option c is wrong as it gave power to British government, not colonial legislatures. Option d is unrelated (Sam Adams' arrest warrants were not from this act).
