The Intolerable Acts were the American Patriots' term for a series of punitive laws passed by the British Parliament in 1774 after the Boston Tea Party. They were meant to punish the Massachusetts colonists for their defiance of throwing a large tea shipment into Boston Harbor in reaction to changes in taxation by the British to the detriment of Colonial goods. In Great Britain, these laws were referred to as the Coercive Acts.

The acts took away Massachusetts' self-government and historic rights, triggering outrage and resistance in the Thirteen Colonies. They were key developments in the outbreak of the American Revolution in 1775.

How did various European counties become involved in and impact the outcome of the American Revolution?
Talja [164]

The American Revolution had an important alliance with France in 1778, after having their trust by winning the battle in Saratoga. The French not only recognized the new United States but also trade concessions and privileges.  One year later in 1779, Spain joined the war against the UK in the side of France. The French decision to join the infant United States in its fight for independence was by far the most important factor in America’s winning the Revolutionary War.
