The Battles of Lexington and Concord 1775, American Revolution
The Battles of Lexington and Concord (April 19, 1775) marked the beginning of the American Revolutionary War, signaling the start of the colonies' fight for independence against the British Empire. The conflict began when British troops, under orders from Governor Thomas Gage, were sent to seize colonial weapons and arrest key rebel leaders in Massachusetts. However, thanks to early warnings from figures like Paul Revere, local militias quickly assembled to resist. The first skirmish occurred in Lexington, where about 70 militiamen faced 700 British soldiers. Despite being outnumbered, the militia stood firm, and the first shot—later known as "The Shot Heard 'Round the World"—officially started the war. Later, in Concord, the British forces met stronger resistance and were forced to retreat back to Boston under continuous ambushes. These battles marked the shift from political tension to full-scale armed conflict, igniting the colonies' desire for freedom and setting the stage for the Revolutionary War.
