The Tea Act Crisis, was the British attempt to bargain Tea prices to the British Colonies in America, this action was seen as a way to make the Colonist go against their principals, given that they were being repressed by the British Parliament. As a result, the Colonists at Boston threw the tea into the harbor. A crime that would go unpunished, but British leaders agreed on regaining absolute obedience.
