We analyze optical, radio and X-ray data from supernova remnants (SNRs) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) in order to make a systematic study of a full sample at a known distance. By this multiwavelength examination of SNRs from various progenitors and environments, we will build a comprehensive picture of the evolution of SNR structure and energetics.
