A. Provide two historical or modern examples of when there was an absence or breakdown of the Rule of Law. Describe the event, who was involved and what happened.
b. What was the result? What damaging impact did these people have on their nations/society? What ended up happening to these people who went above the rule of law?

Boston Tea Party was an event that took place in the United States on December 16, 1773. There was an absence of law in this scenario, as the American colonists boarded a British ship and destroyed millions of dollars worth of tea. This was a result of the British government implementing the Tea Act without the consent of the American colonists. Shay's Rebellion was a rebellion of American farmers who were upset with the economic problems they faced after the American Revolution showed how the Articles of Confederation, America's constitution at this time, were highly ineffective.

Essentially, these events showed that the federal government had no real power to stop rebellions under the Articles of Confederation.
