Explanation:

• Question 6: The American Revolutionary War was a conflict between American colonists seeking independence and Great Britain. The other options are incorrect as the United States as a country didn't exist before the war (so the first option is wrong), the North - South conflict was the Civil War (second option wrong), and Spain was an ally of the colonists in some ways during the Revolutionary War (third option wrong).
• Question 7: The Stamp Act was a direct tax imposed by the British Parliament on the colonies in 1765. The Proclamation of 1763 was about restricting westward settlement, the Whiskey Act was a US - specific tax after independence, and the Treaty of Versailles was after World War I.
• Question 8: The colonists' slogan was “No taxation without representation”. They felt that since they had no elected representatives in the British Parliament, they should not be taxed by it. The other options do not capture the core political argument of the colonists.

Answer:

1. American Colonists and Great Britain
2. Stamp Act
3. Colonists did not have representation within British Parliament (government)
