Who is in the intolerable acts?

Answer 1

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.
