The answer is below

Explanation:

1. Boston Tea Party is a political protest by the American colonists against the Tea Act of May 1773. It was conducted or primarily participated by the Sons of Liberty in Boston, Massachusetts in December 1773.

2. The cause of the Boston Tea Party was the imposition of the Tea Act in May 1773 by the Parliament of Great Britain.

3. Some of the Effects of the Boston Tea Party are the following:

(I). the clampdown of Boston Harbor until the British East India Company tea was fully paid for

(ii). It stopped the Massachusetts Constitution and stopped free elections of town officials.

(iii). the establishment of martial law in Massachusetts.

4. The Boston Tea Party was an important step in the sequence of events leading to the colonies declaring independence because it caused so much damages and destruction of private and public properties. This led to Great Britain imposing Intolerable Acts that were seen by the colonists as an infringement of constitutional rights, natural rights, and colonial charters.

5. The Boston Tea Party and the passing of the Intolerable Acts lead to colonists declaring independence (wanting freedom) from Great Britain because it inspired and united many colonists to fight against the overbearing of Great Britain. This led to the First Continental Congress in September 1774 and subsequently the Declaration of Independence and American Revolutionary War.
