The First Continental Congress was a colonial law making body that was made up of elected officials. This group consisted of delegates from 12 of the colonies that defended the rights of their citizens.
During colonial times, each state had its own way of governing, including their own lawmaking bodies. In Virginia, this group of lawmakers was called the House of Burgesses.
House of Burgesses
The general Assembly is the correct answer.
No, as a matter of fact, it is not. Congress is the chief lawmaking body of the U.S.
In Jamestown, lawmaking was initially rudimentary and evolved over time. The first representative assembly, the House of Burgesses, was established in 1619, allowing colonists to participate in governance and create local laws. This body, comprised of elected representatives, laid the groundwork for self-government in the colonies, balancing the authority of the colonial governor and council. Laws were often influenced by English legal traditions but adapted to the unique needs of the colony.
