- Some people took hundreds of boxes of tea and dumped it into the Boston Harbour, which causes it to shut down because people were protesting that Britain doesn't have to pay taxes for the drink while the citizens that I've under the Townshend Acts do.
- The Bunker Hill Battle(1775)
- After all these restrictions like the Acts such as the Stamp Act, the Townshend Acts, and the Intolerable Acts, the closing of the Boston harbour, and people getting shot at times, the colonists started the rebel against the British and eventually made a revolution that would change the world and create what is now the United States of America.
- The United States of America(1776)
- The Battles of Lexington and Concord were the first military engagements of the American Revolution. These battles were what started the war. The Americans shot at the British soldiers that had a secret mission and began to head towards the colonist rebel leaders and destroy the weapon caches that they had. The first shot in this battle then went on to be called "The shot heard around the world."
- The American revolution had many battles that were marked as significant ones, but one that stood out was the BunkerHill battle. Although the British won this battle, it showed them what the colonists were capable of when they are in a head to head fight. The British won had many more casualties considering how much soldiers they lost during other battles.
- After a few years of fighting, the colonists finally won when General Cornwallis was surrounded and forced to surrender the British position at Yorktown. After they surrendered, the British signed a treaty which is known as the Declaration of Independence. This law stated that the colonies were now their own country, and they were not part of Britain and formed the United States of America.
