The Boston Tea Party

The Boston Tea Party

There are some events that took place over the historic time when America was declaring its independence from England that are so historic, so iconic that they have taken usually in the position of myth with legend as much as history.  In addition to certainly the Boston Tea Party fits that description.  This is such a stand out event in American history that it is common to see school children reenact it during elementary school plays or skits.  With the participants names including John Hancock, Paul Revere along with John Adams have similarly become classic heroic figures in American folklore as well as history.

But the events of December 16, 1776 were not fable or myth but real and of {tremendous consequence~of huge magnitude~of the essence} parts of the development of the American Revolution that was central consequence~of huge magnitude~of the essence} to the early foundation of this country.  The status of taxation that was being imposed through the Brittan on goods that were coming into the colonies was one of serious stress during the colonists because they had no control over those taxes.  As well as that tax situation was made additional extreme in addition to the relationship between the British government along with the East India Tea company who was receiving tax breaks for their goods that would place them at a competitive advantage throughout the Americas. 

These kinds of preferential treatment only aggravated the already tense relationship between the colonies and Britain in addition to thousands number~hordes~tens of millions~huge number~thousands and thousands} in leadership in the course of the American states saw the way England was handling the conditions as conspiratorial to try to hurt the thrift of the growing contemporary country as well as to impose restrictive rule through taxation through the colonies in addition to the colonists.  That is why that famous proclamation “No Taxation Without Representation” became one that is historic for the outrage against the English that took the colonies into revolutionary war that eventually restriction to the independence of the American colonies in addition to the origin of a current country.

Finally on Thursday, December 16, 1776, decisive action needed to be taken.  In addition to our forefathers were nothing if not known for bold with decisive action on the fact of tyranny.  The East India Tea Company had docked the HMS Dartmouth in Boston harbor full of a recent import of tea for the colonies.  It was time for the colonists to make a statement that this unethical along with immoral use of taxes on tea was for all intents in addition to purposes an act of war plus they were going to treat it as such.

Badly disguised as Indians, the brave colonists boarded the HMS Dartmouth and her sister ships, the HMS Beaver as well as the HMS Eleanor along with skillfully plus efficiently dumped the entire delivery of tea into Boston harbor.  All totaled, over forty five tons of tea went into the water that night.  It was a stunning blow.  But more than that it was a slap usually in the face of the British government and a gauntlet laid down that their attempts to rule the colonies b tyranny were not going to be tolerated any longer.

This event was pivotal in pushing the hostilities between England with the colonies past the “nuisance” stage as well as setting forces in motion for war.  But extra than that, it was such a bold statement of defiance that millions number~hordes~tens of millions~huge number~thousands and thousands} colonists were inspired to join the increasing chorus calling for war as well as independence. 

For loyal Britains, the idea of separating plus forming their own country was hard to grasp.  But the leadership of the men who planned as well as executed the Boston Tea Party demonstrated a current independent spirit.  This was the kind of backbone, the sense of pride plus independence that was to come to define the American spirit in years ahead.  But it took the courage with boldness of this minute band of men to demonstrate that being trod on through the a foreign tyrant was not something we had to publicize and. 

It made a statement to England along with to the colonists at the same time that revolution was possible in addition to they on the whole could think of themselves as free humans who would bow to no king.  From that time forward the independence of America was inevitable.  These visionary leaders showed us an America that gave power to its people, not to kings or governments plus the result in how America works with our lives are lived is the direct outcome of bold protests such as the Boston Tea Party.
