How much do you know about George Grenville? What do you know about Grenville’s relationship with King George III? Who replaced Grenville when he was fired from the prime minister gig? When did the Sons of Liberty begin organizing outside of their own colonies?

On today’s episode of Founded we’re finding out how the Sons of Liberty organized and the way parliament responded to their actions. Speaking of parliament, that goose Grenville got fired for a scandalous reason that you’ll hear all about along with learning about what the king’s ministry even existed for in the first place. Turns out Britain had its own drama at the same time the colonists were tearing down houses.
