What was the outcome of the tea act?
The Boston Tea Party and the American revolution The "Tea Act" was one of the "Intolerable Acts' passed by Great Britain that had harsh effects on the colonists. The Tea Act imposed a tax on tea imported to the colonies by a company that Great Britain had set up for that purpose. That company had the exclusive right to import tea to the colonies, so virtually all tea consumed by colonists would be taxed. The colonists were so angry about this that many boycotted tea altogether and some bought only domestically produced tea even though that tea was more expensive than the British tea with the tax added to it. In order to show their anger at the tea tax, several colonists dressed as Indians (althought this is now in question) and went aboard a British ship that was about to unload a cargo of tea. They threw the tea into the waters of Boston Harbor in what is now know as the Boston Tea Party. King George 3rd was furious and vowed to crack down on the colonists. He did this by virtually taking over Boston from the colonists and installing British judges and officials in place of colonists who had served in those positions. This crack-down proved to many colonists that the time had come to split apart from the British Empire. Actually, the Tea Act was NOT part of the "Intolerable Acts" (really called the "Coercive acts") The "Coercive Acts" were: 1. The Boston Port Act 2. Massachusetts Governing Act 3. Quartering Act 4. Administration of Justice Act and the Intolerable Acts lumped in: 5. Quebec Act And also, you have to state which Tea Act you are talking about. There were Tea Acts in the Grenville Acts, the Townshend Acts, and the Tea Act of 1773. The Tea Act in the Grenville Acts was repealed and led to mostly nothing except the Declatory Acts stating that Great Britain had the right to tax the colonies. The Tea Act in the Townshend Acts wasn't repealed, but the colonists didn't react violently like they did during the Grenville Acts (which also included the Stamp Act and the Sugar Act). The Tea Act of 1773 resulted in the Boston Tea party resulting in the Intolerable Acts or the Coercive Acts. These were mentioned in the Declaration of Independence under "List of Grievances". These did ultimately lead to the revolution, but not the Tea Act alone.

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.
