Boston Tea Party
Back around the time when John Adams was alive and lived in Boston, right before the Revolutionary War, where colonists in Boston got aggrivated with the new Tea Act passed by King George III stating that all imported tea will be taxed, and then creating a monopoly in tea, making sure that 99.9% of all of the tea that the colonists drank were imported, forcing them to all pay horrendous taxes on tea. This major outburst led to a revolt in which the colonists attacked ships importing East India Company Tea, and then they took all of the tea on the boats and dumped it all into the Atlantic. A major factor that caused the Revolutionary War and America's freedom.
