Why did the 1st contenental congress meet in 1174?

According to Wikipedia, the Revolt of 1173 to 1174 began when Henry "The Young King" rebelled against his father Henry II of England. The Young King was married to a daughter of the King of France, so when he rebelled against his father, he fled to the Continent to amass his army. He also convened a council of advisers, which might be the Continental Congress you are referring to. The Revolt ultimately failed, but the Young King was not killed because he was supported by many noblemen on the English side of the Channel as well as on the Continent.
