What were the Battles of Lexington and Concord? I need to know for a timeline of the American Revolution that's due tomorrow. Any help? Oh, and what did the Declaratory Act do as well?

My class hasn't gotten books yet.
lexington:
the battle of lexington was fought in the city of lexington between four factions, the americans, the british, the canadians, and the native americans (indians). The british and canadians soon joined forces against the american's and the native americans, and the battle was fought for three weeks until the americans and british both retreated, the native americans and canadians still fought for another week, in all, about 300 native americans, 200 americans, 400 canadians, and 200 english people died in the fight, nobody claimed victory.
Concord:
the battle of concord was fought at first in the city of concord, until it was destroyed, the fight continued when the english retreated and the americans chased them to the sea, where they soon surrendered and the brave americans shot them all, none survived, and in anger king henry sent 6000 more troops to america, and soon took control of the northern united states with his briliant general, rommel, who swiftly took out most of america and then proceeded into the southern states, georgia overthrew rommel and soon the fight was back in concord and it was between 400 british and 150 americans, this is where the famous phrase "kill or be killed" was coined by sir walter scott on bunker hill, just inside the gate to the city, america eventually overthrew the english invaders and saved concord, they didn't count the dead in time, because winter set in and destroyed the corpses, but they estimate that around 4000 died total in the 5 month period.
and the declaratory act was an act sent to france to try to get them to declare war on spain while pretending to be england, this would make spain attack england and start a two front war, but it didn't pan out that well. England caught france in the act and soon started the french and indian war.

In a nut shell:
The midnight run gathered the rebel patriots and the British to the battle field where the "shot heard around the world" was made.

Battle of Lexington And Concord:
A big mess, that got bigger.
Declatory Act:
Another mess that led to Europe being conquered by Napoleon.
Close enough.
