After the British retreated to Boston following the battles of Lexington and Concord, the colonists fortified their positions and formed the Continental Army, appointing George Washington as its commander. They also organized a siege of Boston, surrounding the city and cutting off British supply lines. This strategic move aimed to force the British to abandon the city, ultimately leading to the pivotal events of the Revolutionary War. The colonists unified their efforts, fostering a sense of shared purpose and resistance against British rule.
Colonists were thinking that the British were savage and more rebellions broke out.
The Declaration of Independence is a document that states why colonists were fighting in Boston. They wanted their freedom from the British.
