The First Continental Congress was a group of 56 delegates from 12 colonies that assembled at Carpentersâ?? Hall in Philadelphia Pennsylvania. The purpose of their assembly was to make a response concerning the Coercive Acts that were imposed by the British Parliament and aimed to punish Boston for the Boston Tea Party.
The Stamp Act was passed in 1765 by the British Parliament and was the first to direct tax the colonies.
