The Intolerable Acts were five laws that were passed by the British Parliament against the American Colonies in 1774. 

How did they get their name? 

They were given the name "Intolerable Acts" by American Patriots who felt they simply could not "tolerate" such unfair laws. 

Why did Britain impose these new acts? 

The British passed these acts as punishment for the Boston Tea Party. 



The British thought the acts would help to maintain control in America, but they had the opposite effect causing many people to firmly join the side of the rebels.
