The Revolution Begins

Question 1 • SD-Early US History A

Why did the British march on Concord?

Answer
A
to start war with the Americans
B
to put down unrest in the colonies
C
to deliver weapons to the colonists

Explanation

British troops marched to Concord to seize military supplies that the colonists had stored there and to suppress growing resistance to British rule. They were not delivering weapons to the colonists, and starting a war was not their stated purpose. So the best choice is “to put down unrest in the colonies.”
