In which year was the Stamp Act Congress convened?

The Stamp Act Congress was convened in 1765 as a direct response to the Stamp Act imposed by the British Parliament earlier that year. This act required colonists to purchase special stamped paper for printed materials, effectively taxing them without their consent. The congress involved representatives from nine of the thirteen colonies and served as a critical first step toward unifying the colonies against British taxation policies. It not only protested the Stamp Act but also laid the groundwork for future collective actions among the colonies, such as the Continental Congress.
