The Boston Tea Party was a political demonstration that took place on December 16, 1773, in response to the Tea Act imposed by the British government. Colonists protested against what they viewed as unfair taxation without representation, as the Act granted the British East India Company a monopoly on tea sales in the American colonies. In defiance, American colonists, disguised as Mohawk Indians, boarded British ships and dumped 342 chests of tea into Boston Harbor. This act of defiance escalated tensions between Britain and the colonies, ultimately contributing to the American Revolution.
