  • Boston Massacre

    Boston Massacre
    The Boston Massacre occurs when British troops fire into a mob who were demonstrating against British troops at the customs commission. The first to fall was Crispus Attucks, a fugitive slave and merchant seaman near the front. I think this is important because this event got many patriots fired up and they wanted to fight for what has happened to innocent people. http://www.history.com/topics/american-revolution/boston-massacre

  • Declaration of independence

    Declaration of independence
    The second Congress managed the colonial war effort and moved towards independence, adopting the United States Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. I think this is important because
    without the declaration of independence we would not have had our freedom from Britten.If we did not have our freedom from Britten there could be a chance that We would not even be born because of it that is why I think it is very important http://www.theamericanrevolution.org/EventDetail.aspx?event=52

  • Saratoga

    Saratoga
    The Battle of Saratoga was one of the biggest battles that the Americans could have won. This was a big deal because other European nations would decide if they would help the Americans or not. When the patriots showed that they could start winning this convinced the french to officially declare that they are allies with the Americans. https://www.reference.com/history/won-battle-saratoga-355fa3ede881b0ab

  • The British Left Philadelphia

    The British Left Philadelphia
    the British had fled Philadelphia after having 15,000 men in Philadelphia because they wee afraid of the french navy I thought this was important because there was the continental congress meetings there and it was the capital of the United states of america.

  • Battle of Camden

    Battle of Camden
    The Battle of Camden in South Carolina was a lopsided victory for the British during the American Revolutionary War. It was a tactical error by Gates By putting the inexperienced militia in the front left against the veterans of the British. this is important because Horatio Gates lost a very big battle giving the south to the British. https://www.landofthebrave.info/battle-of-camden.htm.

  • Seige Of Yorktown

    Seige Of Yorktown
    When Cornwallis, the British commander in the South retreated to the Yorktown in June 1781, to reequip his battered army, George Washington was waiting in New York, waiting for a french fleet under command of Rochambeau could trap Cornwallis from escaping on the boat. While Washington defeated him on land. This event is important because this war ended the war by being the last major battle in war. http://edu.lva.virginia.gov/online_classroom/lesson_plans/the_battle_of_yorktown_sort_it_sets.
