Sample Question
What was the purpose of the Second Continental Congress?

The Second Continental Congress was a religious gathering to promote unity among the colonies through prayer and worship.

The Second Continental Congress was formed to establish the first official government of the Thirteen Colonies.

The Second Continental Congress was a meeting to discuss trade agreements between the colonies and Europe.

The Second Continental Congress was a convention of delegates from the Thirteen Colonies that met beginning on May 10, 1775, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, soon after warfare in the American Revolutionary War had begun. It succeeded the First Continental Congress, which met briefly during 1774, also in Philadelphia. The second Congress managed the colonial war effort, and moved incrementally towards independence, adopting the United States Declaration of Independence on July 4th, 1776. By raising armies, directing strategy, appointing diplomats, and making formal treaties, the Congress acted as the de facto national government of what became the United States. With the ratification of the Articles of Confederation in 1781, the Congress became known as the Congress of the Confederation.
