What came after the tea act?

After the Tea Act of 1773, which granted the British East India Company a monopoly on tea sales in the American colonies, widespread protests erupted, culminating in the Boston Tea Party on December 16, 1773. In response to this act of defiance, the British government enacted the Coercive Acts (also known as the Intolerable Acts) in 1774, which aimed to punish the colonies, particularly Massachusetts, and restore order. These measures further escalated tensions between Britain and the colonies, eventually leading to the outbreak of the American Revolutionary War.
