Continental Association was system created by the meeting of delegates who gathered in what city?
Continental Association The Continental Association, often known simply as the "Association", was a system created by the First Continental Congress in 1774 for implementing a trade boycott with Great Britain. Congress hoped that by imposing economic sanctions, they would pressure Great Britain into redressing the grievances of the colonies, in particular repealing the Intolerable Acts passed by the British Parliament. The Association aimed to alter Britain's policies towards the colonies without severing allegiance.
Committees of correspondence (disambiguation) The committees of correspondence were bodies organized by the local governments of the American colonies in the late 1700s for the purposes of coordinating written communication outside of the colony.
