Answer 1

The First Continental Congress sent a petition to King George III to explain their grievances and the result was e) British soldiers engaging Minutemen in Massachusetts, the first battles of the American Revolution. This was because the petition was unsuccessful, so they started grouping militia in the colonies, which started the first little battles at the start of the American Revolution.
