History: Massachusetts was home to many Native American tribes before the arrival of European explorers. In 1620, England established the first settlement of Pilgrims in Plymouth. The Massachusetts Bay Colony was founded in 1629 with the arrival of more settlers in Boston. Ultimately both colonies combined in1691to form the Province of Massachusetts. As life in the new territory evolved, the colonists sought independence from British governance and taxation. Troops arrived from England to occupy the colonies and quell protest. Their attempts to suppress the independence movement led to skirmishes such as the Boston Massacre and the Boston Tea Party protest, setting the stage for the American Revolution. Paul Revere made his legendary ride to warn the colonists of the advancing British Army, and the Revolutionary War began on April 19, 1775 with the Battles of Lexington and Concord. The conflict formally ended in 1783, granting independence to the colonies. In 1788, Massachusetts became the sixth state to join the Union.
