During what years did the American Revolution take place?

The time frame being tested is when the American Revolution happened. It began in 1775 with the first battles at Lexington and Concord and ended in 1783 with the Treaty of Paris that recognized American independence. So the correct years are 1775–1783. The other ranges point to unrelated events: 1861–1865 is the Civil War, 1492–1504 relates to early European exploration of the Americas, and 1914–1918 marks World War I.
