1 März 1773 Jahr - Committees of Correspondence
Beschreibung:
The colonists made the Committees of Correspondence to be able to maintain communication with the other colonies about the fight against British taxes. The Committees of Correspondence brought some colonial unity with them. It also led to the formation of the First Continental Congress, which was a huge part of the events leading to the American Revolution.
"In 1773, the Virginia House of Burgesses proposed that each colonial legislature appoint a committee for intercolonial correspondence. The exchanges that followed built solidarity during the turbulent times and helped bring about the formation of the First Continental Congress in 1774."
