History

Answer:

The Tea Act of 1773 was one of several measures imposed on the American colonists by the heavily indebted British government in the decade leading up to the American Revolutionary War (1775-83). The act’s main purpose was not to raise revenue from the colonies but to bail out the floundering East India Company, a key actor in the British economy. The British government granted the company a monopoly on the importation and sale of tea in the colonies. The colonists had never accepted the constitutionality of the duty on tea, and the Tea Act rekindled their opposition to it.

What happened at the Battle of Bunker Hill?
Oksana_A [137]
Hey Cleary423,

The Battle of Bunker Hill was a battle in the Revolutionary War. It occurred on June 17, 1775, in Boston. 2,200 British forces under the command of Major General William Howe, landed on the Charlestown peninsula, and marched towards Bunker Hill. The British won the battle, and Charlestown Peninsula became under British control. Although the British had been victorious, the battle was a morale builder for the inexperienced Americans, who were outnumbered almost 3:1 and managed to wound and kill almost half of the British troops! 

Hope this helps!
