Two significant events that heightened tensions between the British Parliament and the American colonists in Boston were the Boston Massacre in 1770 and the Boston Tea Party in 1773. The Boston Massacre resulted in the death of five colonists at the hands of British soldiers, igniting outrage and resentment against British authority. The Boston Tea Party, a protest against the Tea Act, involved colonists dumping British tea into Boston Harbor, leading Parliament to impose punitive measures through the Coercive Acts, further escalating conflict.

The British taxes on goods created hard feelings between the British and colonists. British soldiers panicked during a protest and caused the Boston Massacre.

The main conflict of the Boston Tea Party was the imposition of tea taxes by the British government on the American colonies without their representation or consent. The colonists believed that this violated their rights and liberties as British subjects. Additionally, there was a conflict between the American colonists and the British East India Company, which the colonists saw as an unfair monopoly that threatened their economic interests.
The Boston Tea Party was actually a protest by the American colonists against British taxation, specifically the Tea Act, rather than an act involving Native Americans. The colonists were frustrated with British control and taxation without representation, which led to the destruction of tea in Boston Harbor in December 1773. Native Americans were not directly involved in this event, so the colonists were not angry at them regarding the Boston Tea Party. Instead, it was a pivotal moment in escalating tensions between the colonists and British authorities.
