Which of the following events did NOT occur in Massachusetts around the time of the American Revolution?

The Boston Tea Party
The Declaration of Independence
Paul Revere's ride
The first battle of the Revolutionary War

The correct answer is: The Declaration of Independence

The Declaration of Independence was formally adopted in Philadelphia on July 4, 1776, and while it was a crucial event in American history, it did not specifically occur in Massachusetts. The Boston Tea Party, Paul Revere's ride, and the first battle of the Revolutionary War (the Battles of Lexington and Concord) are all significant events that took place in Massachusetts prior to the adoption of the Declaration. The Boston Tea Party, which occurred in December 1773, was a protest against British taxation. Paul Revere's ride in April 1775 was a pivotal moment that warned colonists of the approaching British troops. The first battles of the Revolutionary War also took place in April 1775 in Lexington and Concord. Each of these events underscores Massachusetts' vital role in the early stages of the Revolution.
