What happened before the battle of the plains of Abraham?
The British defeated Lousebourge first to get an open route to the St.Laurance river which lead to Quebec. Wolfe and his troop came up secretly at night when the defease of the french was weak, the French were suprised to see thousands of red coated soldiers lined up neatly on the Plains the next morning. There were several events that led up to the battle. One of them was the british defeating Lousebourge to get an open route to the ST. Lawrence river which led to Quebec. The battle was driven by the British because they wanted the power that other countries had. Wolfe, who was led the British in the battle, came with his troops at night when the defence of the French was weak and attacked them in the morning.
What is the significance of the Battle of Vincennes?

For What Reason were the British Marching to Lexington?
They were actually marching to Concord, but Lexington was on the way. They wanted to get from Boston to Concord MA to seize the ammunition stored there, so the colonial militia wouldn't use it against the British. In that time, there were really only a few routes from Boston to Concord because everything was forest or farmland. The route ran through Lexington, and the militia there were alerted to the British approach, so they came out to delay the British from getting to Concord. This delay, which became the "Shot Heard Round the World" when a skirmish broke out, gave the Concord militia enough time to remove a lot of ammunition and gave revolutionary leaders time to escape capture. The "battle" on Lexington Green was the first actual battle of the American Revolution.
Why did the acadians surrender to the British?
It is most accurate to say that the American War for Independence ended not in a surrender by the British but, rather, with a British acknowledgement of defeat. After eight long years of hostilities, the British were war-weary and otherwise exhausted with the effort. Further, their military was also over-stretched due to its many other commitments around the globe -- and could not achieve its aim of subduing the American rebellion.
