Step-by-step explanation:

The First Continental Congress: met in response to the Intolerable Acts.

The Second Continental Congress: met to defend the colonies

The First Continental Congress was called to address grievances against the British government.

The Second Continental Congress was initially called for the same reason, but once it voted to declare independence it acted as the defacto government of an independent nation.

The First Congress started a boycott of British goods and a Second Continental Congress.

The Second Continental Congress created the Declaration of Independence and the Articles of Confederation.
