On June 17, 1775 the Battle of Bunker Hill took place. It is one of the most important colonial victories in the U.S. War for Independence. Fought during the Siege of Boston, it lent considerable encouragement to the revolutionary cause. This battle made both sides realize that this was not going to be a matter decided on by one quick and decisive battle. When the British planned to occupy Dorchester Heights on the Boston Peninsula, the colonists became alarmed at the build up of British troops off of the coast. The colonists decided that action had to be taken so as to stop the threatening British movement in this territory to protect themselves from an attack. The Battle of Bunker Hill started when the colonists learned about the British plan to occupy Dorchester Heights. The colonists were understandably shaken by this news. They thought of this as the last straw, and they had to protect their land and freedom.

I just had a test on this a week and a half ago. One is that the British imposed new taxes, two is the troops landed in Boston, three is that the British didn't give them the freedom the colonist wanted, and four is that the colonist wanted a democracy. Good luck.

P.S. God was on our side;)

they main reason was the millasha the Britt's had no respect for them because in their first engagement's the millasha broke and ran first. but in the last battles it was the millasha who stood firm and drove them back. witch surprised the Britt's. then our Allies pinned them in by sea we had them surrounded the could not flee so they surrendered well that's it in a nut shell and my spelling is as bad as yours lol so don't feel bad
