Question

The First Continental Congress:

Answer 1

The First Continental Congress was a meeting of delegates from 12 of the 13 British colonies that became the United States. It met from Sept 5 to Oct 26, 1774, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, after the British Navy instituted a blockade of Boston Harbor and Parliament passed the punitive Intolerable Acts in response to The Boston Tea Party.

Answer 2

The Continental Congress was a series of legislative bodies which met in the British American colonies and the newly-declared United States just before, during, and after the American Revolution. The term "Continental Congress" most specifically refers to the First and Second Congresses of 1774–1781 and may also refer to the Congress of the Confederation of 1781–1789, which operated as the first national government of the United States until being replaced by the current congress. Thus, the term covers the three congressional bodies of the Thirteen Colonies and the new United States that met between 1774 and 1789. It’s in ggle
