<span>Because he believed that if our nation would survive then we would need a strong government and the government needed rules to go by or they would basically monarch us. On September 14, 1786 Alexander Hamilton wrote the call for the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia to be held in May of 1787. George Washington was unanimously chosen to preside over the convention. Although he rarely spoke during the four month convention, his prestige gave it legitimacy. Also, after hours at the local taverns (visit City Tavern), Washington was very active in developing strategy behind the scenes. He had a major impact on the success of the Convention.</span>

Which of the following was NOT a provision of the Coercive Acts?
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

C) The creation of colonial-controlled legislatures

Explanation:

Part of the 1774 Coercive Acts (known by the colonists as the Intolerable Acts) was the Massachusetts Government Act, which repealed the Massachusetts Bay Colony's right to elect its own legislature, in effect turning it into a royal colony. Thomas Gage was made the royal governor and instituted martial law within the colony. Also, under these acts, many of the provisions of the Quartering Act, which had been repealed earlier, were put back into place. The Administration of Justice Act allowed trials to be held in locations outside of the area where the crime took place. Furthermore, the Boston Harbor was closed until the damages caused by the Boston Tea Party were repaid.
