After the shot was fired, even more shots followed. Eight Colonists were dead and the British marched towards Concorde. On their way back through they were met by the Colonists, they fired and over 200 British soldiers were dead, the Colonists meant business.
The Colonists joined together and named George Washington[12] the Commander of the Continental Army. Washington was from Virginia and had wooden teeth, I bet that was creepy when he smiled.
Fighting continued and the colonists decided to send an "Olive Branch" petition. This petition said they would be loyal to the King but the taxes were redic.
The King rejected it and sent more troops to Boston.
