Question

Which Act required the colonies to only buy tea

from the East India Company? Why do you think
the king of England put this Act in place?

Answer 1

In an effort to save the troubled enterprise, the British Parliament passed the Tea Act in 1773. The act granted the company the right to ship its tea directly to the colonies without first landing it in England, and to commission agents who would have the sole right to sell tea in the colonies.
