In which year did Einstein propound his theories of relativity?

I'm doing a project on the Theories of Relativity(General and Special) and I'd like to know when he made these theories known to the world and how.|||The theory of special relativity was received for publication on June 30, 1905. It was published in "Annalen der Physik" on September 27, 1905. General Relativity was published on November 25, 1915.

In 1917, Einstein published an article in Physikalische Zeitschrift that proposed the possibility of stimulated emission, the physical process that makes possible the maser and the laser . He also published a paper introducing a new notion, a cosmological constant, into the general theory of relativity in an attempt to model the behavior of the entire universe.
