Unfair taxation was a cause in which revolutions?

Answer
A
the American and French revolutions
B
the Glorious and French revolutions
C
the American and Glorious revolutions
D
the Glorious, American, and French revolutions

Explanation

Unfair or burdensome taxation helped spark both the American and French Revolutions. American colonists protested taxes imposed by Britain without representation, while in France the tax system placed a heavy burden on commoners and exempted many nobles and clergy. The Glorious Revolution was mainly driven by conflict over the monarchy, Parliament, and religion, so the best choice is “the American and French revolutions.”
