24 mars 1774 - Intolerable Acts
Description:
King George III was infuriated by this organized destruction of British property (referring to Boston Tea Party), and he pressed Parliament to act. In 1774, Parliament responded by passing a series of measures that colonists called the Intolerable Acts. One law shut down Boston Harbor because the colonists had refused to pay for the damaged tea.Ajouté au bande de temps:
