Why did members of the second continental congress send the olive branch petition to king george iii? 1.they wanted the king to know they were ready to fight a war. 2.they hoped the king would replace parliament. 3.they wanted to remain loyal to the king. 4.they hoped the king would believe that the colonies could win a war.

3. They wanted to remain loyal to the king.

Most of the members of the Continental Congress wanted to remain with Great Britain and saw themselves as only English subjects. The Olive Branch Petition asked the King to reconsider a better relationship with the colonies to include a representative in Parliament to speak on behalf of the colonies. It is only when they realized the King was unwilling to meet them somewhere in the middle, that the Congress took steps to declare independence.

hi there!

question - in the 1900s there were two competing views about the environment that often pitted industrialist and conservationist against one another. how were these two competing views demonstrated by the environmental policies of president roosevelt and president taft?

theodore had a quicked tempered personality while president taft was shy and barely noticable.theodore had started a dealing service with big companies which president taft completed.both were into making sure workers were always safe.president taft took the presidency more serious than theodore did.both loved to save nature.

hope this : )
