Mabye this: The Boston Tea Party (referred to in its time simply as "the destruction of the tea" or by other informal names and so named until half a century later,[2]) was a political protest by the Sons of Liberty in Boston, a city in the British colony of Massachusetts, against the tax policy of the British government and the East India Company that controlled all the tea imported into the colonies. On December 16, 1773, after officials in Boston refused to return three shiploads of taxed tea to Britain, a group of colonists boarded the ships and destroyed the tea by throwing it into Boston Harbor. The incident remains an iconic event of American history, and other political protests often refer to it.

It was when The british were taxing citizens after the french and indian war, (britain won). When the British were taxing tea, and making a law that soldiers must live in their houses, the Sons of Liberty dressed up as Indians and dumped 342 boxes of tea into the harbor, making the water brown.
