1 ene 1773 año - 3. Boston Tea Party

Descripción:

*In response to the American colonies' response to the Townshend Acts, the British passed a new act called the Tea Act.* The act would make use of all of the tea being produced by the British colonies in India, by bringing them to America for cheaper. The British thought this would calm the colonies down, but it only made things worse, as instead of buying the tea, a group known as the Sons of Liberty stormed the boats where the tea was kept and threw them overboard in what would come to be known as the Boston Tea Party.
