Ely and Littleport riots of 1816
Okay kiddo, let me tell you a story about two riots that happened a long time ago. In the year 1816, people in a place called Ely and another place called Littleport were very upset because they didn't have enough money to buy the things they needed. So, they decided to protest by having a big group of people march and shout about their problems.
But things got out of hand, and people started breaking windows and stealing things from stores. This made the leaders of the town worried, and they called in the army to stop the riots. The soldiers arrested many people, and some were even sent to prison.
The riots happened because people were very poor and didn't have enough money for food and basic things. They wanted to show their anger and frustration, but unfortunately, it turned into a violent situation. It's always important to peacefully talk about your problems and find solutions together instead of hurting others or breaking the law.
