The Boston Tea party took place on December 16, 1773, as part of a protest against British taxes. During the night, The "Sons of Liberty" were disguised as Mohawk Indians and went onto three ships (Dartmouth, Eleanor, and Beaver). These colonists/patriots dumped the tea into Boston Harbor. On land, other colonists were cheering for them.

The Boston Massacre was part of a massive propaganda campaign used by the Patriots to stir up the colonists into getting angry at the British. The Boston Massacre was not so much a massacre, but the accidental shooting of 5 people by British soldiers placed in Boston after the mobs of colonists were hitting the soldiers with rocks and ice. This was an effective way of getting many colonists passionate about war with England. The amount of soldiers involved in the incident is unknown.
