    government. On December 16, 1773, after officials
    in Boston refused to return three shiploads of
    taxed tea to Britain, a group of colonists
    boarded the ships and destroyed the tea by
    throwing it into Boston Harbor. The incident
    remains an iconic event of American history, and
    has often been referenced in other political
    protests.

25
Intolerable Acts
  • The Intolerable Acts or the Coercive Acts are
    names used to describe a series of laws passed by
    the British Parliament in 1774 relating to
    Britain's colonies in North America. The acts
    sparked outrage and resistance in the Thirteen
    Colonies and were important developments in the
    growth of the American Revolution.

26
First Continental Congress
  • The First Continental Congress was a convention
    of delegates from twelve of the thirteen British
    North American colonies that met on September 5,
    1774, in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, early in the
    American Revolution. Called in response to the
    passage of the Coercive Acts (also known as
    Intolerable Acts by the Colonial Americans) by
    the British Parliament, the Congress was attended
    by 56 members appointed by the legislatures of
    twelve of the Thirteen Colonies, the exception
    being the Province of Georgia, which did not send
    delegates. The Congress met briefly to consider
    options, an economic boycott of British trade,
    publish a list of rights and grievances, and
    petition King George for redress of those
    grievances.

27
Patriots
  • those who supported the cause of American
    independence in the American Revolution

28
Loyalists
  • In North America, the term 'Loyalist' describes
    American colonists who rejected the American
    Revolution. They were typically Royal officials,
    Anglican clergymen, wealthy merchants with ties
    to London, de-mobilized Royal soldiers, or recent
    arrivals (especially from Scotland), together
    with many ordinary people. Though estimates vary,
    colonists with Loyalist sympathies likely
    accounted for as much as 30 of the colonial
    population of the day, compared to about 40 who
    were 'Patriot'. This high level of political
    polarization causes some historians to argue that
    The American Revolution was as much a civil war,
    as a war of independence.1

29
Decision to declare war at Second Continental
Congress
  • The second Congress managed the colonial war
    effort, and moved slowly towards independence,

    Independence on July 4, 1776.

    Great Britain. 
  • The second part is a theory of good government
    and individual rights.
  • The third part of the document is a list of
    grievances against King George III.
  • The fourth and final part of the document is an
    unqualified assertion of sovereignty by the
    United States of America.
