Answer:

The correct answer is D. American colonists convened the Continental Congress to settle on a response to public protests against British treatment of the colonies.

Explanation:

The Continental Congress consisted of delegates from the 13 colonies of British North America who wanted to defend themselves against restrictions on the freedom of their citizens. Since the Congress met between 1774 and 1789, its founding immediately preceded the American War of Independence.

The first Continental Congress met from September 5, 1774 to October 26, 1774 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Measures against the Intolerable Acts were passed and letters were sent directly to George III. The main topics of this congress were a declaration of solidarity from all colonies and the imposition of a one-year ban on exports and imports to Great Britain. An important adviser was the future second president of the United States, John Adams; Virginia's representative was George Washington.

NikAS [45]

The Creek nation was pressured by Georgians to give them their land. In 1773 Gerorgia purchased part of their land by forgiven the debt Creeks had acrued with them. From then on, with the American Revolution, Creeks were divided between the American and British sides. The Upper Creeks, influenced by Cherokee indians took the English side, while the Lower Creeks took Americans'.

In 1786 Creeks declared war on Georgia for the lands ceaded in Augusta Treaty. In 1832 Creeks signed a contract to finnaly leave Georgia to Indian Territory and after a brief conflict in 1836, they left now Georgia's territory to begin a new life in Indian Territory.
