Question

What were the delegates trying to decide during the first and second Continental Congress? What were the results of these meetings?

Answer 1

The delegates took two major actions the first one was they sent a letter to King George the third explaining the issues the colonies had with the way they were being treated. They demanded that they can stop the intolerable acts or they would boycott English goods.

The second Congress function as a de facto national government at the outset of the revolutionary war by raising armies, directing strategy, appointing diplomats, and writing trick teachers such as the declaration of the causes and necessity of taking up arms and the olive branch petition.
