Who is in the intolerable acts?
The Intolerable Acts are also known as the Coercive Acts because the colonists felt they were passed to punish the people of Boston for the Boston Tea Party and to force them to do something they did not want to do. They were a series of Acts passed by Parliament; one closed the Port of Boston until the Tea was paid for; a new governor was empowered to transfer trials of British officials and soldiers out of the colony and to Great Britain, even those accused of killing colonists; the colony of Massachusetts had its entire structure of government overhauled and the elected bodies lost their powers. The colony became a Royal Colony in fact; a new Quatering Act required the citizens of Boston to find room and board for the Redcoats stationed in Boston, even if it meant housing soldiers in private homes; The Quebec Act, while not really intended to be part of the Intolerable Acts, recognized the French in Quebec and extended the boudary of that provice into the Ohio River Valley, cutting off westward expansion by the American colonists.

What would have happened if parliament would have repealed the intolerable acts?
We may or may not have been still part of England. The intolerable acts were a part of why we disliked England, and wanted independence, but not all. We also felt disrespected, and like we were lower class than the British. We still most likely would have British tropes in the colonies, no representation in Parliament, and they most likely would have passed more acts and taxes that would have made us angry. On the contrary, if there were not the intolerable acts, we may not have been mad enough to start a war, and if we did, have enough people to support and fight in the war.
