Answers
The First Continental Congress had absolutely no effect on Britain. Hence all options above are incorrect.
The First Continental Congress was a conference of delegates from twelve American colonies in 1774, to discuss ways to end, the British Parliament’s intolerable Acts. The delegates petitioned King George III with their grievances and rights, which had no effect. The Second Continental Congress was therefore convened, the next year.
First Continental Congress was formed in 1774, with the delegates from the colonies of America.
This Congress declared that the colonies would stop exporting goods to the Britain, unless the British rulers address their grievances.
It also questioned British Parliament’s right to tax the Americans.
The British government retaliated by imposing more restrictions on these colonies and sent army to curb the protests, which led to the Revolutionary War in America.
So the second option is the right answer.
