The Intolerable Acts, also known as the Coercive Acts, were enacted by the British Parliament in 1774 in response to the Boston Tea Party. These laws aimed to punish the Massachusetts colonists for their defiance and included measures like closing Boston Harbor and revoking the colony's charter. The acts heightened tensions between Britain and the American colonies, ultimately leading to the First Continental Congress and the push for independence.
