The historical significance of the Boston Tea Party is recognized more in the British response than in the event itself. As a result of the Boston Tea Party, Parliament passed the following laws designed to punish the Americans.
1.) The Boston Harbor Bill – This bill closed the harbor to all commercial traffic until Bostonians paid for the tea they dumped.
2.) The Administration of Justice Act – This act required the extradition (transfer) of all royal officials charged with capital crimes in America to courts in Great Britain.
3.) Massachusetts Government Act – This act ended self-rule in the colonies and made all elected officers in America subject to British appointment.
4.) Quartering Act – This was simply a new version of the 1765 Quartering Act which required Americans to provide accommodations (housing , food, clothing etc.) to British soldiers if necessary.
5.) Quebec Act – This act extended the Canadian border (British territory) into the Ohio River Valley and eliminated lands that were claimed by Massachusetts, Virginia and Connecticut.
These acts were called the Intolerable Acts in America and resulted in the formation of the Continental Congress.

The right to use Pearl Harbor as a naval base.
Explanation:
For several decades, the sugar farmers in Hawaii had been economically disadvantaged by United States import taxes tariffs placed on their farm product, and as a result had been making efforts to negotiate for a free trade agreement. There had been two previous attempts at reaching an agreement with the United States which all failed, due to many reasons. The planters sought after a treaty, but the Hawaiian citizens were afraid it would pilot to annexation by the United States.
In the year 1872 The Reciprocity Treaty was signed which allowed Hawaii to trade sugar with the United States without any paying of taxes, duties or tariffs, this greatly increasing plantation profits for the Hawaiians and also gave the United States the right to use Pearl Harbor as a naval base.
