Before the war started, some crazy stuff happened like the Boston Massacre and the Boston Tea Party. On March 5, 1770, there was a big fight between the Sons of Liberty and British soldiers. It was super sad because some people died. Then, on December 16, 1773, the Sons of Liberty got together and threw tea into the harbor to protest against unfair taxes. This made people even more mad and ready to fight.
