What act of treason was committed by the continental congress?

History
1 answer:
solniwko [45]4 years ago
3 0

The American delegates pleaded with George III to attempt peaceful resolution and declared their loyalty to the Crown. The King refused to receive this petition and instead declared the colonies to be in a state of rebellion in August. Insult turned to injury when George ordered the hiring of HESSIAN mercenaries to bring the colonists under control. Americans now felt less and less like their English brethren. How could their fellow citizens order a band of ruthless, foreign goons? The moderate voice in the Continental Congress was dealt a serious blow.

<span>As the seasons changed and hostilities continued, cries for independence grew stronger. The men in Philadelphia were now wanted for treason.

They continued to govern and hope against hope that all would end well.</span>

What events led the new nation to write the constitution?
kow [346]

A variety of reasons. The ongoing debate about federal power had tipped to the side of the 'Federalists,' for one thing. But also, and perhaps more importantly, the practical experience of the nation during the War for Independence had demonstrated that, without a stronger federal government, it would risk failing in its 'grand experiment' of republican self-governance.
