∙ 9y agoThe phrase "The Coercive Acts" was actually the popular reference for the Restraining Acts, a group of four acts or proclamations originating from King George and targeting the American Colonies in direct response to the Boston Tea Party. These acts were The Boston Port Act, the Quartering Act, the Administration of Justice Act, and the Massachusetts Government Act. The intent of these acts were to punish Boston and bring the rest of the colonies in line. Instead, it almost single handedly began the American Revolution.
