American Revolution Poster Analysis

The American Revolution was a political separation between Britain and the original Thirteen Colonies. It occurred between the years 1765 and 1783, resulting in a lot of bloodshed and casualties. With tension building between the two powers, the revolution was a battle that formed what America is today. The Boston Tea Party, the Boston Massacre, and the many taxes imposed are factors to what lead the colonists to form together and fight Britain. The reason why America won against its former owner is because of the alliance with France, the knowledge of the terrain, and the determination that the soldiers had.

During the 1770’s the Revolutionary War began and it was between the Patriots and Great Britain (Redcoats). Great Britain treated the Americans unfairly and the Americans has no representation. Although, it was undecided who shot the first shot at the battle of Lexington and Concord it is agreeable that Great Britain was at fault for starting the Revolutionary War.

The revolutionary war, a time when a still young and growing thirteen colonies began to take a stand to their mother country, Great Britain. With a lack of communication with the American colonies, a sense of “salutary neglect”, a rift began to form between mother and child. Trust in each other was beginning to wane. This rift soon caused a series of chain reactions. With the British enforcing laws that seriously hindered American expansion and trade. Great Britain having losing their trust in the colonist, they did not respect any American leadership and or opinions. Both sides were both to blame for a war that followed their poor decisions and reactions.

The American revolution took place in the time frame of 1765 and 1783. The reason was because of the feud with the thirteen American colonies and the British government. The Americans went to war with the British and won their freedom, but how much actually changed for the Americans?

Due to the conflict during the French and Indian War, tension arose between American colonists and the British government. This caused Americans to unite together to fight for their rights against the British. The Americans boycotted English rule, but this did not work so their only option was to go to war. The tension between the British and the Colonists lead to the revolutionary war. The American colonists were justified in waging war because they were unfairly taxed, their freedoms were denied and the British deceitfully killed the colonist.

While many historians might argue that the American Revolution was not so revolutionary in its nature, there is no denying the lasting effects that it has had not only on the continent, but the world. Through an analysis of documents from this period and the social, political, and economic changes that occurred in the colonies, it is clear that the colonial governmental system was radically changed during this time period. The political ideas that emerged from this revolution have shaped modern democratic governments for years, coupled with the advancement of other Enlightenment ideals.

The American Revolution which took place from 1765 to 1783 was a direct result of the colonists’ anger and displeasure towards Britain. Colonists rejected the British monarchy and overthrew their aristocratic government, forming the United States of America. Essentially, the 13 colonies organized together because they rejected the authority of Britain and the country’s ability to levy taxes and impose unjust laws. Protests began to escalate as the colonists took part in the Boston Tea Party in which they destroyed consignments of tea from the East India Company. Consequently, the Intolerable Acts were imposed by the British, and the colonists responded by forming an alternative government to stage their resistance. The war was finally set in

    The Revolutionary War was not very revolutionary because even though colonists risked their lives to fight for what they believe in, ending their terrible years under British control, they haven’t freed African-American slaves nor stated women and American Indians’ rights. It is one of history’s most important events.

Great Britain did not strictly govern the English colonies so they traded and developed their own independent governments without any interference. The colonies were left in salutary neglect and it wasn’t until after the French and Indian war that the way the colonies were governed changed. After the French and Indian war, the Native Americans were dissatisfied with the treatment from the British officials and they organized Pontiac’s Rebellion. Because of this, King George decided to pass the Proclamation of 1763, which forbade all settlements past a line drawn among the Appalachian Mountains. The colonists were upset because the law prevented from settling in the Ohio Valley and some already had land in the area, but could not return to

All revolutions start for a reason. France did not overthrow their king in the 18th century because the people wanted to. The 13 colonies did not break away from Britain for no reason. A government has to be pretty bad if the people who are under the government do not like it. For the instance with Britain and the colonies, the King put taxes on the people of the colonies. The colonies were enraged because they weren’t even considered in government. And instead of just giving them what the colonists wanted, King George III just ignored them. The King put taxes on colonists and the colonists revolted with Boycotts and the Boston Tea Party.

In the year 1764, King George III of Great Britain placed taxes on colonial America causing anger to flourish within the colonies resulting in their rebellion from the British. One-third of the colony wanted independence from Great Britain, the Patriots, while another third decided to stay loyal to the British, the loyalists/tories. The Patriots soon went to war with Britain for their independence, but the rest of the colony was reluctant to join the Patriots’ cause for various reasons. The loyalists were hesitant to join the American Revolution because of the nonideal living location and the British protected them when no one else would.

The change of American ideas between 1763 and 1783 became more anti British as colonists became increasingly ridiculed by British forces and enraged by their actions. They were uncompromising with their taxes and abused the colonists with their military forces. Starting in 1764, there was a stream of many taxes set in place including; the Sugar Act, Stamp Act, and Townshend Acts. These made the colonists angry, but there was more. The quartering act and Boston massacre were both actions of the British forces’ brutality and uncompromising behavior.

On April 19,1775 the American Revolutionary War started and ended on September 3, 1783.Did you know that Samuel Adams had the idea for the Boston Tea party? I bet you didn’t know that!! Do you also know why there was an American War? Well, it happened because the Great Britain wanted to rule the new 13 colonies and the colonies did not want to be ruled.Did you know who patriots were? Well, patriots were people who fought for the rights of the colonies to be a free country which soon became our U.S.A. Do you know loyalists were? Loyalists were people who fought for the rights of Great Britain to rule over the new 13 colonies, but I guess that they didn’t win the war.

The American Revolutionary War (1775–1783), the American War of Independence, or simply the Revolutionary War in the United States, was the prosperous military revolt against Great Britain of Thirteen American Colonies which joined together as the United States of America in July 1776. Originally constrained to fighting in those colonies, after 1778 it additionally became a world war between Britain and France, Netherlands, Spain, and Mysore.

The reason I chose the American Revolution as my topic was mainly because to me I thought it was very relevant subject to speak upon and not many of us have knowledge of how we even became the United States of America. Basically the American Revolution was one of many steps taken to develop our democracy type of government that we do have today. Also it tells about how the original thirteen broke away from the British harsh government taxes. To be honest I chose this topic simply because it was and I’ve done a report on this back in grade school. These are the causes that led up to the war (not the signing because its already prior knowledge)
