After the Boston Tea Party in December 1773, where American colonists protested British taxation by dumping tea into Boston Harbor, the British government responded with the Coercive Acts (also known as the Intolerable Acts) in 1774. These laws aimed to punish Massachusetts and assert British authority, leading to increased tensions between the colonies and Britain. In response, the colonies convened the First Continental Congress to coordinate their resistance, ultimately paving the way for the American Revolution. This escalated conflict eventually culminated in the outbreak of war in April 1775.
