What was another name for the Cohersive Acts?
The Coercive Acts were officially called the Restraining Acts, but Americans called them the Intolerable Acts. They included the Boston Port Act (June 1, 1774), the Quartering Act (June 2, 1774), the Administration of Justice Act (May 20, 1774), and the Massachusetts Government Act (May 20, 1774). These acts were a response to the Boston Tea Party and were an attempt to restore order in the colonies. They were instrumental in leading the colonies on the path to war. Massachusetts gained sympathy from other colonies. The First Continental Congress was called, and met in Philadelphia in September, 1774. And many of the more moderate colonists began to move toward more radical views, surprised over the harsh response of the British government to the actions of the colonists.
