Which event happened first? a. the battles at lexington and concord b. the british evacuation of boston c. the signing of the declaration of independence d. the battle of bunker hill

The correct answer is A. The event that happened first was the Battles at Lexington and Concord.

Explanation:

1- The Battles of Lexington and Concord were the first battles of the American Revolutionary War. They were held on April 19, 1775 in Lexington, Concord, Lincoln, Menotomy and Cambridge in Massachusetts. These battles marked the beginning of the armed conflict between Britain and the Thirteen Colonies.

2- Bunker Hill was a battle in the American Revolutionary War. It took place on June 17th, 1775 during the siege of Boston. Although known as "Bunker Hill", it was largely held on Breed's Hill. The British army under William Howe drove the American militia out of the fortified positions at Bunker Hill and Breed's Hill. The battle was a Pyrrhic victory for Howe. His immediate goal was achieved, but the attack demonstrated American stamina, caused considerable British casualties, and did not change the status of the siege.

3- The siege of Boston ended after eleven months on March 17, 1776 when the Continental Army, under General George Washington, placed captured guns from Fort Ticonderoga on Dorchester Heights south of Boston. With a clear view of the city and the narrow harbor where the British navy ship lay, the Americans had a clear take on General William Howe's garrison. To prevent what would become an inevitable slaughter of his forces, Howe agreed to retreat to Nova Scotia with the help of his ships.

4- The Declaration of Independence of the United States is a historical document in which the British colonies in North America declared independence from Great Britain, unanimously adopted by the Second Continental Congress on July 4, 1776 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

c is the correct answer for this question.
