Explanation:

• The Boston Massacre, the famous clash of English soldiers and American patriots on Monday, March 5, 1770, leads to the American Revolution.
• Tensions between citizens and soldiers over Boston's military occupation were heightened when soldiers began firing at a group of civilians. John Adams later said that America was founded on the night of the Boston massacre.
• Various decisions by the English authorities have led to discontent among the people.
• One unpopular measure was to pay taxes on everything, even tea. In protest in 1773, American colonists climbed aboard English ships in Boston. The ship's shipments of tea were thrown overboard.
• This event, known as the Boston Tea Party, marked the beginning of the fight for independence.
