Answer:

The Boston Tea Party

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 1760s, Britain was in deep debt, so the British Parliament put taxes on american colonists to help pay those debts. The american colonists got angry at Britain for imposing "taxation without representation," and dumped 342 chests of tea.
