Revolutionary War By: Kayden Hickle Table of Contents Chapter 1…. Overview Chapter 2…. Boston Tea Party Chapter 3…. Personal point of view Chapter 4…. Essay Overview Chapter 1 Do you know why the American Revolution War happened? The French and Indian War happened before American Revolution War. Britain lost a lot of money for the war and decided to tax the Colonists​ ( The Americans ) with Acts ,Tea Act, Sugar Act, Stamp Act, and Quartering Act. The colonists were mad about the Boston Massacre and decided to go on three tea carrying ships and crack open all the tea crates and dumped it all in the water. They did the Boston Tea Party dressed as Indians then that’s when all the ​Redcoats ​came and attacked the people. Paul Revere warned all the people that the “The British are coming-repeat” that was the Battle of Lexington and Concord. The British came and that is when it started. Boston Tea Party Chapter 2 Have you ever wondered why the Boston Tea Party ever happened? In 1773 the ​Colonists​ were taxed with Acts called Tea Tax, Sugar Acts, Stamp Acts, and the Quartering Acts because the British lost a lot of money ( pounds in the U.K.) from the French and Indian War. The Boston Massacre happened because the Colonists​ were still angry at ​King George III​ for taxing us. Many people died in The Boston Massacre. The Boston Tea Party occurred on 12/16/1773 ​Colonists​ were angry and we boarded the Beaver, Dartmouth, & Eleanor. The only ships that were at the Boston Harbor with tea crates and barrels. The “Native Americans” started to dump the tea into the Boston Harbor and as the ​Redcoats ​started to come to the docks all the ​Colonists​ swam off the boat and ran away. But eventually the ​British​ will come and kill a lot of men, women, and children. It is important because without the Acts, The Boston Massacre and Tea Party the Revolutionary War would have never happened and change all of History this is why everything in the War is important to many people. Personal Point Of View I was sleeping knowing a British Soldier could walk in here and kill me and my family. When I woke up I thought heard a British Soldier outside so I looked and it was an adult walking the streets. Then later on that day I walked to the pub to have some brew and when I got there Sam Adams gave a speech about how the tea acts were bad and how we didn’t have a vote. “Do you remember our brothers who died in The Boston Massacre!!”,said Sam Adams we all rose up and ran to the ships dressed as Mohawk Indians so we won’t get our actual identities taken and us getting captured. Boarding three ships, the Beaver, Dartmouth, and Eleanor. We were as silent as a mouse on cotton we are on the last ship and we were clean off the ships even though the British and innocents were watching us and did not do anything about it. Essay The Boston Tea Party is important to the War because without it the War might might have never happened. We still would be taxing the British. We all know the Boston Tea Party as the day the Colonists dumped tea in the Boston Harbor But they don’t know it is really important. It was really the first ever time they fought back and did something about it. The Colonists kept complaining and King George the III didn’t until the actual Boston Tea Party the King was mad and sent 10,000 troops so we wouldn’t leave Great Britain and the loyalists also made sure that didn’t. .
