The British King passed The Sugar Act in (1764), Stamp Act (1765), Quartering Act (1765), Tea Act (1773), and the Intolerable Acts.
The colonists responded with outrage. They boycotted anything that came from Britain, damaging the trade between Britain and America.
In response to the Tea Act (1773) there was the Boston Tea Party, which sparked the Intolerable Acts.
