This act gave the British East India Company a monopoly on tea sales in America. This is what cause the spark in which The Sons of Liberty used to ignite the American Revolution. On the night of the Boston Tea Party the Sons of Liberty, dressed up as native Americans in hopes to disguise themselves, and marched onto a British ship carrying tons of imported tea. The Sons of Liberty then continued to dump all of the tea off the ship into the Boston Harbor. However this event was not derived as such a direct objection to the King. Adams and the Committee of Correspondence tried furiously to peacefully get the British ships carrying tea to sail back to Britain. However after several back and forth conversations with the ships captains it was discovered that there was no way for the ships to bring their cargo back to Britain.
