Negative Effects Of The American Revolution

The first voyage I made when I got off the boat was directly towards a church. I decided to visit the Old North Church and as I approached I noticed that the brick work seemed to glisten in the sun, and the white interior reminded me of how pure the world can really be. The church practiced Protestantism, and started soon after the War.[1] I admired the way in which the citizens praised God, but I did happen to notice that their practices were rather different from my own. After talking to some of the Americans most had either commented on my accent or expressed their condolences to the revolution. I also asked them about how they worship and how they choose to worship. Many of these American citizens were free to choose what they wanted to worship. Most did say that they would be judged for their religious decisions, but were never forced into doing

It is generally agreed upon that the Revolution was guaranteed- even foretold- since the idea of settling on it was even suggested- no one can give a large group of people the idea to run themselves and still keep control from thousands of miles away. England had it, but lost that control of their child nation in 1766 when they revoked the Stamp Act and gave the colonists the notion that they had the power and authority to independently run the budding country. After being allowed this minute freedom, the colonists were not pleased with Parliament 's taxes and attempts of an iron fist hold on the Americas- and along with their opposing views on nearly everything, decided that they were no longer pleased with being considered British. Salutary neglect also contributed to the colonists ' inflated sense of pride- aptly named because at this time England 'neglected ' the colonies, giving them room for individual theories, politics, beliefs, and the abilities to run their own lives for a while. The freedom was too much for them to go back to how things were before when England decided to tighten their grip. At this time, the colonists started a war to free themselves.

The American Revolution was a very important event that still affects our society today. The Revolution consisted of the colonists declaring their independence from the British monarchy, which resulted in the Revolutionary War. In the end, America gained their independence, and the idea of rightful liberties was spread throughout the colonies. It may not have been revolutionary at first, but over time it caused a ripple effect. This ripple, starting with the creation of the Declaration of Independence from Britain being followed by a written Constitution, caused small events to occur over time.

Both the British and the American colonists contributed to causing the American Revolution. The war grew out of contempt: England’s contempt for the colonies and colonial contempt for British policies. A series of actions by the British eventually pushed the colonists over the edge and towards independence. The results of the war gave many citizens a new role in society while others, like slaves, felt no change at all. This paper will examine the specific causes and effects of the American Revolution.

The American Revolution was a war of independence between 1775 and 1783 caused by a myriad of political, economic, social and religious disputes between British and American colonies. Political representation for colonists was put into question when economic factors such as taxes came into play. A major factor that drove reform during the American Revolution was the freedom of religion. People were being limited in their participation, were forced to pay taxes on the official church and had to obey church laws. Colonists began to fight against these restrictions and eventually gained rights for people of different religion and as a result of the American Revolution, religious minorities experienced benefits such as the liberty of religion

The American Revolution involved different countries against Great Britain. Economic problems and political disagreements occurred throughout the fight. Debt from the past war and laws that forced ideas and rules upon the colonists angered them. Although the American Revolution had both acts of politics and economics, the war was more of an act of economics than politics.

Political action, built up tension, and colonial resistance are some of the things that can generally describe the American Revolution. Before the outbreak of the war in 1775, tensions were building between the American colonists and the British authorities. The British government was making many attempts to raise revenue by taxing the colonies. Those attempts were met with heated protest among many of the colonists, and it eventually turned towards resistance that led to violence. Not only did forward events bring a pyrrhic victory in a way, it also brought differing views from the loyalist and colonist standpoint. From Thomas Paine’s Common Sense to Jonathan Boucher’s A View of the Causes and Consequences of the American Revolution, I’ll talk about how

The effects of the revolutionary war were felt far and wide by everyone involved; however, groups such as the colonist slaves, the Indians, and women felt these influences in particular. For the colonist, the revolution signified the introduction of the idea of “life, liberty, and property” (Schultz, 2009, p. 112) as a natural right for every person. Additionally, the conclusion of the war signaled the possibility of the new politics of republican democracy, instead of the Old-World gentry style of governing (Schultz, 2014). Also, instead of seeing each state as its own entity, they began recognizing that they all shared attributes that separated them from everyone else; in fact, this provided the colonist with a sense of unity that was necessary for the creation of the United States of America (Schultz, 2009). These effects on the colonist were for their benefit, but what about the slaves?

The American Revolution was fought from 1775 to 1783, between [former] colonies and british soldiers. The revolution was fought so that the colonist could get from under the british government which they felt was overbearing and had been misusing their powers. The revolution which ended in seventeen eighty-three with the signing of the treaty of Paris. The former colonies where now their own individual entity, they were now Americans; living in the newly renamed United States. Post- American Revolution things in the states changed, drastically in some areas and not so drastically in other areas. Politically the states became polar opposites than that of the political system they had previously been following; these new thoughts were

The 18th century was a time of redefined ideas. The very notion of government, the most basic aspects of human rights were being overturned. Radical thinkers in the American colonies were coming together, building a strong foundation for future generations. These developments in philosophy and ideals were largely a result of the influx of people escaping persecution, the contemporary values held at the time, and the simple practicality of self-government.

During this time there was also a debate over the relations of church and state because of fear that the government would interfere with religion. However, there were also domestic disputes within the colonies between the backcountry slave owners and colonial elites, also disputes between the working and middle class, and also disputes between the colonists and Native Americans. ”(Lecture and Study

Religion had a big impact in shaping what America is today. Religion still has a big role in modern American society, even with the emergence of Scientific belief systems which would have been condemned in colonial America. Religion has the capability of shaping its follower’s entire lives, countless people lived and died to preserve their spot in the afterlife. One of the key reasons many chose to immigrate to America was for freedom of religion. Religion is the belief of something beyond what is scientifically proven. Many different religious sects moved to America for various reasons. In this essay, we will examine some of the major religious groups of Colonial America and their effect on shaping America.

The American Revolutionary Era was one of the most important periods in American history. This period marked the first time were the newly found Americas would successfully colonized. This Era brought change that defied the current framework of society, promoted a sense of equality, and formed a new economic structure. However, the extent at which the Revolutionary Era can be called “truly revolutionary” is debatable. If we look at the effects the Revolutionary Era had on society, including African slaves, women, and the Indigenous Peoples, it could be characterized as (oxymoronically) un-revolutionary in the sense that pre-Revolutionary Era ideologies continued on into the Revolutionary Era.

The American Revolution was a war fought between Great Britain and North America. The conflict started from growing issues between the people from the thirteen Great British colonies and the colonial government. Both, The American and British Army had advantages and disadvantages that contributed to a great outcome; The Treaty of Paris as a result to end the revolution in 1783.

All through history, religion and what God someone follows has drastically affected their lifestyle by affecting their political statuses. The way someone lived was determined by what religion they followed politically,economically and socially. Most colonies official religion was Anglican/Church of England or Christianity but some did not have an official religion which created problems. The slaves that were forcefully immigrated to the colonies were not able to practice their own religion because some owner were extremely religious and other were not able to connect to their God or Gods. American history demonstrate that religion and the God someone followed had drastic effects with politics by not being able to be part of it, economy by not being able to own any land and make money for himself , and society by not being about to join any communities or organization extremely affected slaves to reach true happiness in the place they call home.
