Before the war happened, there were some important events like the Boston Massacre and the Boston Tea Party. All this started on March 5, 1770, when some people who called themselves the Sons of Liberty got into a fight with British soldiers. It was a pretty big deal because a few people ended up getting killed. Another event that added to the tension was the Boston Tea Party on December 16, 1773. Basically, these Sons of Liberty guys snuck onto British ships and threw all the tea overboard into the harbor. It was a way for them to protest against unfair taxes. These events made things even worse and got everyone more fired up for war.
