In response to the Intolerable Acts, the Continental Congress convened in September 1774 to organize colonial resistance. They issued the Declaration of Rights and Grievances, asserting their rights and demanding the repeal of the acts. The Congress also established a boycott of British goods and called for a Second Continental Congress to address further actions against British policies. This collective response marked a significant step toward unified colonial action against British rule.

It was needed to respond to the unjust terms and rules applied to the colonists by way of the Coercive Acts also known as the Intolerable acts. Also the first national American government was the Continental Congress. Colonial leaders came together in this Congress to oppose British policies that restricted their rights and taxed them without representation in Parliament. Called by the Virginia House of Burgesses, delegates from all of the thirteen colonies ,except Georgia, gathered in Philadelphia. The 1st Continental Congress urged Americans not to import British goods and to form armed militia. But rather than advocate revolution, Congress called for "peace, liberty and security" within the British empire. The British Parliament saw the Congress as treasonous and ordered colonial governors to prevent another election. Yet the 2nd Continental Congress met in May 1775.
The Second Continental Congress convened in May 1775 in response to the outbreak of fighting between colonial militias and British troops, notably after the battles of Lexington and Concord. It took decisive action by organizing the Continental Army and appointing George Washington as its commander. The Congress also issued the Olive Branch Petition, seeking reconciliation with Britain, while simultaneously preparing for a potential declaration of independence. Ultimately, the Congress played a crucial role in uniting the colonies against British rule.
