The Old North Church, known officially as the Christ Church in the City of Boston, is a church located in the American city of Boston.
The church was where Robert Newman lit a signal to warn of incoming British troops, which would later give rise to the famous phrase "one if by land, and two if by sea". This phrase was related to Paul Revere's midnight ride of 18 April 1775 that preceded the Battles of Lexington and Concord which started the American Revolutionary War.

In it, Washington, seduced by the Apple, became a tyrannical king whose reign saw Benjamin Franklin burn the church to the ground with innumerable innocents inside.
