Answer 1

The Boston Tea Party was a political protest against the British prohibition of Yankee traders from dealing directly with merchants in canton.

The Boston Tea Party was a political demonstration that took place at Griffin's Wharf in Boston, Massachusetts, on December 16, 1773. 342 chests of tea that had been imported by the British East India Company were dumped into the harbor by American colonists who were disgruntled and outraged with Britain for enforcing "taxation without representation."

Yankee traders were American businessmen and drug smugglers in the past, especially at the turn of the 19th century. The term "Yankee" was given to the traders since many of them were from Boston or other New England ports.
