4 0

The Intolerable Acts were passed by Parliment as a reactionary measure against the colonists after the Boston Tea Party. Most were aimed at punishing Boston itself. The main 4 effects thr Intolerable acts had were:
1. Closing the Boston Port and significantly hurting the trade-based Boston economy.
2. Banning public Town Assemblies and strengthening the power of the Military Governor (who was loyal to the crown).
3. Allowimg British officials to be tried for crimes in London rather than in the US, increasing their chances of being acquitted significantly.
4. Reviving some elements of the Quartering Act.

These measures alienated the colonists and damaged the economy of Boston, fueling hostility towards London and the King.
