Explanation:

The Battles of Lexington and Concord were the first battles of the American Revolution and as a result of the casualties on both sides, ended any hope of the differences between the British and Americans being resolved in a peaceful manner.

The British realized that they would need a larger army to defeat the rebellion and so recruited a larger one.

The Colonial army also realized the same and encouraged by their victory against the British, believed they could win the war. This led to a swelling of the Colonial army ranks.

After the Civil War, liberty was defined as the rights of all men to be treated equally under the law. The US government did their best to ensure that this happened, by implementing the 14th and 15th amendment. These amendments granted citizenship to any person born on US soil, guaranteed equal legal treatment under the Equal protection clause, and allowed black men the right to vote. These were all supposed to be positive steps towards creating a society in which "liberty" meant that all men had the same legal and political rights.

However, this ideal world did not exist after the Civil War. The implementation of Jim Crow laws and "separate but equal" facilities created a society in the South which was based on unequal treatment of African-American citizens.
