In 1773, Parliament (the British, of course) passed a new law which imposed a tax on tea without the colonies' agreement. In response , the Bostonians disguised themselves as Indians and boarded three British ships and threw 342 chests of tea into the water. This event came to be known as the 'Boston Tea Party. Its result was that the British government closed the port and imposed punishments on the colonists - which led to the War of Independence.
