AFTERMATH

HOW MUCH TEA DUMPED

340 chests of British East India Company Tea, weighing over 92,000 pounds (roughly 46 tons),

The news of the Boston Tea Party reached London, England on January 20, 1774, and as a result the British shut down Boston Harbor until all of the 340 chests of British East India Company tea were paid for.

The Boston Tea Party remained anonymous for many years after the event. To date it is known that 116 people are documented to have participated.

WHY

PLACE & DATE

HOW MANY DIED

The tea the Sons of Liberty dumped into Boston Harbor was in fact from China.

In simplest terms, the Boston Tea Party happened as a result of “taxation without representation”, yet the cause is more complex than that. The American colonists believed Britain was unfairly taxing them to pay for expenses incurred during the French and Indian War.
