The cotton gin was a machine for separating cotton from its seeds.
Answer:
In response to the actions of the Patriot Colonist, the British Parliament responded by enacting the Boston Port Act, the Massachusetts Government Act, the Administration of Justice Act, the Quartering Act. The laws were retaliatory and intentionally designed to inflict undesirous conditions upon Massachusetts.
The Patriot Colonists, otherwise known or referred to as <em>American Whigs</em>, were colonies who rejected British Rule. They were thirteen of them. Their actions involved the destruction of 342 chests of tea in Boston, Massachusetts because the British Parliament had enacted the Tea Act, automatically conferring a monopoly status on British East India Company (BEIC) which sold tea in the colonies. The Tea Act prevented BEIC from sinking into bankruptcy. This may have been tolerated if there was nothing else, but the Act also added a small tax, an action which vexed the colonists and triggered what their action which became labelled by historians as the Boston Tea Party.
The "punishment" on Massachusetts backfired. It attracted the sympathy of other colonies and even the support of The Congress who pledged to support Massachusetts in case of attack from the Britons.

By treaty I’m assuming you mean the treaty of Versailles which held Germany responsible for starting the war and imposed harsh penalties in terms of loss of territory, massive reparations payments and demilitarization. This caused them to be in debt in fact
they were so much in debt that they went into a deep depression in fact they were so in debt that it took them from 1919 to 2010 to pay off their debt that’s 91 years that’s insane almost makes you feel bad for them
