What event did the battle of concord lead to?
It really wasn't much of a Battle there at Concord. However, a few Minutemen contronted some British soldiers and fired and killed some of them. This was the first time that the Americans inflicted casualties against the British. The British forces began their return trip to protection of Boston and more and more Minutemen began to come out and fire at the retreating British. This continued all day along the road back to Boston. This ignited the American Revolution into a full-scale war.
In the 13 0riginal Colonies where did Revolutionary war begin?
The first victory, and the first battle, for the Colonialists was in Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts. It was here that the Colonies formed up Patriots to fight against the British on their march from Lexington. They eventually pushed the British back to the safety of Charlestown which would later lead to the siege of Boston.
How did the coercive acts lead to colonial unity?
Parliament passed four acts in 1774 aimed specifically at what was seen as the hotbed of rebellion, Boston.
