The Boston Tea Party was an act of defiance towards the British Government by American colonists that took place in 1773. The government in London had given a British company the right to sell tea directly to the colonies. This annoyed the Americans , so do you know what they did? A group of colonists found a ship in the harbor of Boston that was loaded with the company's tea. They dressed as Native Americans, boarded the ship, and threw hundreds of chests of tea over board. The British government then tried to punish the colonists by closing the port of Boston, but this move only increase the determination of the Americans to fight against British Rule.
