Descripción:
The First Continental Congress was a gathering of representatives from twelve American colonies from September 5 to October 26, 1774, in Philadelphia. The Congress aimed to address colonial grievances, promote colonial unity, and petition the British Crown for redress while maintaining loyalty to the King. Delegates adopted resolutions and petitions, including the "Declaration and Resolves" and the "Continental Association," which called for a boycott of British goods. This Congress marked a significant step towards colonial unity and set the stage for more radical measures, ultimately leading to the American Revolutionary War.
