King George sent ten hundred troops to the colonies.
Yes, before the Battle of Bunker Hill, there were efforts at reconciliation between the American colonies and Britain. The most notable was the Olive Branch Petition, sent by the Second Continental Congress in July 1775, which sought to address grievances and affirm loyalty to the British crown. However, King George III rejected the petition and declared the colonies in rebellion, leading to further escalation and ultimately the battle in June 1775.
Before the Battle of Bunker Hill, the Second Continental Congress took several significant actions. They established the Continental Army, appointing George Washington as its commander, and began to organize the colonies' defenses against British forces. Additionally, the Congress issued the Olive Branch Petition in July 1775, seeking a peaceful resolution to the conflict, while simultaneously preparing for potential military engagement as tensions escalated. These steps laid the groundwork for the colonies' push towards independence.
King William's war, the first of the French and Indian wars, caused the British to take measures with the intention of protecting the colonies, like the samp act. These acts estranged the relationship between the colonies and the mother country.
Well they tried the Olive Branch Petition but Britain sent it back with Hessians which are German soldiers who are hired to fight. And then they had the Revolutionary War. Hope that helped you. -Susu :]
