Though preceded by years of unrest and periodic violence, the Revolutionary War began in
earnest on April 19, 1775, with the battles of Lexington and Concord. The conflict lasted a
total of seven years, with the major American victory at Yorktown, Virginia in 1781 marking
the end of hostilities, although some fighting took place through the fall of 1783.

The Treaty of Paris was signed two years later, on September 3rd, 1783, by representatives of
King George III including David Hartley and Richard Oswald and the United States including
