Serving as the spark that lit the flame of the Revolutionary War in America, the small towns of Lexington and Concord are where tensions between the British and the Colonists reached their peak. In April of 1775, British soldiers and American militia clashed at both towns, with the British soon retreating back to their base in Boston. The Revolutionary War had begun.

How was he Boston massacre different from the battles of the revolutionary war?

The Boston Massacre, which occurred on March 5, 1770, was a confrontation between British soldiers and Boston colonists that resulted in the deaths of five colonists. Unlike the battles of the Revolutionary War, which were organized military engagements between the Continental Army and British forces, the Boston Massacre was a civil disturbance sparked by escalating tensions and resentment towards British authority. It served more as a propaganda tool for colonists, galvanizing anti-British sentiment, rather than a strategic military conflict. Ultimately, the Massacre highlighted the growing divide between Britain and the American colonies leading up to the war.
