The Olive Branch Petition was a final attempt by the American colonies to avoid a full-scale war with Britain during the American Revolution. It was sent to King George III in 1775 and expressed the colonists' desire for reconciliation and peace with Britain. While it did not declare independence from Britain or weaken the Continental Congress, it did briefly pause the fighting as the King considered the petition. However, King George III rejected the petition and it ultimately failed to bring about peace, leading to further escalation of the conflict.
