Why were the intolerable acts passed?

The Intolerable Acts was the name given to the laws issued in 1774 by the British Parliament due to continued discontent in the Thirteen American Colonies, particularly in Boston after turbulent incidents such as the Tea Party in Boston. These acts accelerated the processes that culminated in the War of Independence of the United States and the formation of the First Continental Congress.

The Intolerable Acts were a determining factor for the convening of the First Continental Congress and the Declaration of Rights and Grievances. The Continental Congress rejected the Intolerable Acts when creating the Continental Association. The aim was to boycott British goods and if that failed to force Parliament to remove the tax records, then the American colonists would stop exporting to Britain.
