Explanation:
1- A group of about 77 Minutemen waited for the British unit on the Green in downtown Lexington. It is unclear who fired the first shot. The battle lasted only a few minutes, after which the revolutionaries were forced by the British force to withdraw. There were eight Americans dead and ten injured, and a British soldier was wounded. After the victory, British unity moved on to Concord.
2- In Concord the revolutionaries had taken a position to wait for the British at the "North Bridge" over the Concord River. This time the rebels managed to flee the British, and with that they inflicted the invincible British soldiers the first defeat in the British colonies in North America.
3- The Battle of Bunker Hill took place on June 17, 1775 on Breed's Hill as part of the Siege of Boston during the American Revolutionary War. As most of the battle did not take place on Bunker Hill, the conflict is also called the Battle of Breed's Hill.
4- The capture of Fort Ticonderoga was an event that occurred at the beginning of the War of Independence of the United States. On May 10, 1775, Colonels Ethan Allen and Benedict Arnold surprised and captured a small British garrison at Fort Ticonderoga. The cannons captured in the fort were subsequently destined to fortify Dorchester Heights and break the stalemate in the siege of Boston.
5- The Battle of Quebec was a military confrontation fought on December 31, 1775, between the military forces of the Thirteen Colonies and the British-Canadian defenders of the city of Quebec at the beginning of the American War of Independence. The battle was the first major defeat of the conflict for the Americans, and came with heavy losses. General Richard Montgomery was killed, Benedict Arnold and Daniel Morgan were injured and more than 400 men were taken prisoner. The garrison of the city, formed by Canadians and English led by General Guy Carleton, suffered a small number of casualties.
