Protest over the price of tea erupt when the lack of tea production in China (due to a Heat Wave that kills the crop) causes the Japanese to put a Tea Act which puts a tax on tea.

The Japanese argue that their is enough tea in Japan but the Government tells them that Chinese tea would be put on tax. Since Chinese Tea is more popular than in Japan. The Japanese resist buying only Japanese tea and throw $10000 worth of tea into Japanese Shore. The group "Sons of China" is formed. They designate fossil fuel producing factories as the major criminals and begin blowing them up.

(Nuclear plants and rocket producing factories are ignored)

Nervous Soldiers arrest the protestors.

News of the Chinese tea shortage price soon causes world panic.

Even Otto gets the news of the Chinese Tea Shortage as he is a frequent Chinese Tea Drinker Btw nuclear power plants don’t exist yet
