The Intolerable Acts, passed in 1774, were a series of punitive measures enacted by the British Parliament in response to the Boston Tea Party and other acts of colonial defiance. The goal was to restore order in the American colonies by punishing Massachusetts and asserting British authority. These acts aimed to suppress dissent and discourage other colonies from supporting Massachusetts in its resistance to British rule, ultimately escalating tensions that led to the American Revolution.
