This game helps teach students about how the Intolerable Acts led to the American Revolution, and the effect they had on the people of Boston and the colonies as a whole. It takes place after the events of the Boston Tea Party when the British sought to punish the people of Boston and Massachusetts by enforcing harsh laws on them. The Massachusetts government lost its special self government, the ports were closed, the leadership was replaced by a military leader loyal to the king, and the committees of correspondence got to work spreading the news of the harshness of the British empire.

The French and Indian War, fought from 1754 to 1763, was a pivotal conflict in North America between the British and French colonial empires, with Native American allies on both sides. It was part of the larger global struggle known as the Seven Years’ War. The war resulted from territorial and economic disputes and ended with the Treaty of Paris in 1763, which saw Britain gaining control of Canada and all of North America east of the Mississippi River, while France ceded Louisiana to Spain. The war’s outcome had profound implications for the future of North America, setting the stage for colonial tensions that would ultimately lead to the American Revolution.

The Opium Wars were two conflicts in the mid-19th century between China and Western powers, primarily Britain. The First Opium War (1839-1842) was triggered by China’s attempts to suppress the opium trade, which Britain was using to balance trade deficits. The war ended with the Treaty of Nanking, which opened several Chinese ports to British trade and ceded Hong Kong to Britain. The Second Opium War (1856-1860), involving Britain and France against China, led to further trade concessions and the legalization of the opium trade. These wars significantly weakened China and marked the beginning of the country’s “Century of Humiliation.”

She is known for her intelligence, political acumen, and for having relationships with two Roman leaders, Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, to protect her kingdom from Roman expansion. Her reign was marked by political and romantic alliances with these figures, leading to the eventual Roman takeover of Egypt followed by her death (traditionally said to be by snake bite) after Mark Antony’s defeat by Octavian, the future Emperor Augustus. Cleopatra remains a figure of fascination in history, literature, and art for her life’s drama and her role in shaping the course of Western history.
