The Boston Tea Party threw tea overboard British ships as an act of protest against the tea act.

The bicycle route sign is the polar opposite of the no bicycle sign, which is what the tea party was trying to achieve, the opposite or repeal of the tea act.]]> 2020-09-22 12:30:23 UTC https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/767780481 gtcspq https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/767790128 March 5, 1770
The Boston massacre was when British troops killed 5 in a mob.

The no u turn sign is used for the Boston massacre because when soldiers kill civilians it is almost impossible to regain positive relations with the public.]]> 2020-09-22 12:33:18 UTC https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/767790128 gtcspq https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/767796798 September - October, 1774
The first continental congress was a collection of delegates from twelve of the thirteen colonies to discuss resistance against British coercive acts.

The Quartering act forced colonists to shelter British soldiers in their homes.

The olive branch petition was created as a last resort to prevent war between Britain and the Colonies.

The truck escape ramp also serves as a last resort to prevent catastrophe.]]> 2020-10-08 20:11:52 UTC https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/815321846 gtcspq https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/815324471 December 26, 1776
The battle of Trenton served as a morale boost for the colonies when the war wasn't going in their favor. The battle was an easy win as the British weren't prepared for the attack.

The end road work sign also brings a boost of morale after a period of despair.]]> 2020-10-08 20:12:56 UTC https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/815324471 gtcspq https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/815326708 July 4, 1776
The declaration of independence declared the colonies an independent state. Every person who signed it was committing treason.

The Declaration brought the colonies on a different path, one that they couldn't turn back from, just like an exit lane.]]> 2020-10-08 20:13:49 UTC https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/815326708 gtcspq https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/815338807 September 3, 1783
The treaty of Paris was the official end to the revolutionary war.

The stop sign makes you stop, just like the revolutionary war stopped.]]> 2020-10-08 20:18:39 UTC https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/815338807 gtcspq https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/815341616 22 March 1765
The stamp act placed a tax on all legal documents in the colonies.

The stamp act is represented by a slow traffic sign because they both are just pains to deal with.]]> 2020-10-08 20:19:48 UTC https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/815341616 gtcspq https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/815357398 Oct 19, 1781
The battle of Yorktown was a decisive victory for the colonists in the revolutionary war. General Cornwallis and his forces were surrounded and forced to surrender.

The yield sign is like a less official stop sign, it serves the same main function of designating right of way, but is soft and doesn't enforce a stop. The battle of Yorktown was the practical end to the revolutionary war, but it wasn't an official stop.]]> 2020-10-08 20:26:24 UTC https://padlet.com/gtcspq/sdt81nixxh307ftf/wish/815357398
