Delegate members from each state attended the continental congress to discuss British authority in the America colonies. Delegates from nine colonies met in 1765, and collectively declined taxation by the British Parliament on the colonies.
Between 1772 and 1775, tensions escalated between the American colonies and British authorities, leading to significant events that fueled the American Revolution. In 1773, the Boston Tea Party occurred, where colonists protested against British taxation by dumping tea into Boston Harbor. The British responded with the Coercive Acts (Intolerable Acts) in 1774, aiming to assert control over the colonies. These actions united the colonies further, culminating in the First Continental Congress in 1774, where delegates from various colonies convened to address their grievances against British rule.
The First Continental Congress petitioned the English crown for redress of certain grievances. Those grievances primarily consisted of the passage of what was known as Coercive Acts by the British, which were the punishment of the colonists for the Boston Tea Party.
lol who cares
The colonial delegates met at the First Continental Congress in 1774 primarily to address their grievances against British rule, particularly in response to the Intolerable Acts. They sought to unify the colonies in resistance to British policies and to assert their rights as Englishmen. The delegates aimed to petition King George III for redress of their complaints while also preparing for potential collective action, including economic boycotts against British goods. Ultimately, they wanted to establish a coordinated response to British oppression and preserve their liberties.
