The Coercive Acts of 1774 were a series of Acts made by the Parliament in response to the Boston Tea Party, where the cargo of three ships was thrown into the ocean.

The acts included various forms of repression and punishment, such as the closing of the Boston's port, the restricting of democratic meetings, the obligation of quarter English official and lastly the immunity of British officials in Massachusetts.

The reasoning behind these acts was the hope that the other colonies would not follow Massachusetts, and so prevent a full-scale revolution, but instead, the other colonies responded with a demonstration of unity - providing supplies and generally giving aid to the population - that represents one of the first steps on the path that led to the American Revolution.
