Correct answer: They were the first battles of the American Revolution.

Brief explanation: Lexington and Concord (April 1775) were the opening armed engagements between British regulars and colonial militia, triggering the Revolutionary War ("the shot heard ’round the world") and galvanizing colonial resistance. They did not end the war and were fights between British forces and American colonists, not battles between colonies.
