What was one effect of the Massachusets Government Act?

One significant effect of the Massachusetts Government Act was the erosion of self-governance in the colony. The Act, part of the Intolerable Acts enacted by Britain in 1774, effectively disbanded the Massachusetts colonial assembly and replaced it with a governor appointed by the crown. This centralization of power heightened tensions between the colonists and the British government, ultimately contributing to the outbreak of the American Revolution as colonists sought to reclaim their rights and autonomy.
