Nah, they'd have long since washed their hands of the US after its people got to hating on the French.

American Revolution Began With the 'Shot Heard 'Round The World' 250 Years Ago Today



Saturday marks the 250th anniversary of the beginning of the American Revolutionary War with the "shot heard 'round the world" on Lexington Green in Massachusetts on April 19, 1775.

The conflict between Great Britain and her 13 American colonies had been brewing for some time.

The action started beginning on the night of April 18th, 1775, when Paul Revere made his famous ride to warn the citizens of Massachusetts that the British were marching from Boston to Concord to seize the colonists' gunpowder stores.

Shortly after dawn, 77 local militia confronted the lead elements of 700 Redcoats on Lexington Green, blocking their way to Concord.

After a standoff lasting a few moments, a musket shot was fired: no one was sure afterwards from which side. It did not matter; a great volley of musket fire then ensued.

"The shot heard 'round the world" launched the American Revolution.
