The Coercive Acts and the Quebec Acts passed by British Parliament in 1774. These two acts were dubbed the intolerable acts by Colonial leaders and led to a unified opposition of British government, a renewed boycott of British imported goods, and the assembly of the First Continental Congress on September 5th, 1774.
