Answer: Great Britain reacted very strongly to the Boston Tea Party. When the colonists dumped the tea in the harbor at Boston, the British East India Company lost a significant amount of money. To punish the colonies, especially those in Massachusetts, for this action, the British passed the Intolerable Acts.
