The primary purpose of the First Continental Congress was to address the grievances of the American colonies against British policies, particularly in response to the Intolerable Acts imposed by the British government. Initially, the colonists sought to resolve their differences with Britain through debate and conversation.
Delegates from 12 of the 13 American colonies attended the Congress. Georgia was the only colony that did not send representatives. Prominent figures at the First Continental Congress included John Adams, Samuel Adams, George Washington, Patrick Henry, and Peyton Randolph, who was elected as the president of the Congress.
