ARROWS TIMELINE

The significance of the Declaration of Independence was that it listed all the reasons that the colonists has decided to separate from Britain. It also went back to enlightenment thinking by stating that all men were created equal. So therefore the people had natural rights, and did not owe the king their lives.

Women became more active in society, so they learned that if they were going to fight and sacrifice for the country they wanted benefits as a result. This resulted in women making moves for woman suffrage, and equal schooling as men. The impact of Republican Motherhood was that the next generation, who would eventually take over the government, had their values instealed by their mothers. This allowed women to have a more active role in society

The second continental congress's mission was to reconcile with Britiain. Their last attempt to maintain peace was by sending Britain The Olive branch petition. However, there was to much tension between the colonies and Britain to go back to their formal relationship and war eventually broke out.

The significance of The batte of Lexington and Concord is that it was the very first battle to start the war. There was a period of about ten years, were tension was rising and the colonists knew a change was coming. This first battle was called ,"The shot heard round the world," because it set the war into motion and rallied the colonists against Britain.
