Let’s first imagine if America lost the revolutionary war. First, the colony in North America would have smaller territories with Mexico separated and Russia retaining Alaska. The Russians would not sell any territories of theirs to the enemy, which is the British empire. Therefore, Alaska would be owned by Russia. One of Britain’s allies was Spain so, it is highly plausible that Florida, California, Texas would all be owned by Spanish. Second, there would be less population as there won’t be mass emigration. Wanting more people to help a country grow would make sense for a new country who just declared their independence. But, the British would be less eager to do that. Britain would highly use the immigration policy like Australia’s where they offer immigration to people who would like to make …show more content…
They feel very patriotic especially when it's the fourth of July. Despite all the cons, America has become one of the leaders of the world. Therefore, clearly, it was the right move to fight for freedom against Britain. America achieved a lot of accomplishments as a free country and those accomplishments might not have happened if America were to lost the revolutionary war. For one, America is very diverse which contributed a lot to the creative ideas that the country had. Diversity means there’s a lot of people from different backgrounds and culture and that made them approach things in different ways. Many researchers have found that creativity is easily found in diversity. This is why America has contributed a lot of creative ideas for the world. America also strengthened the representative democracy system, also known as indirect democracy, which allows people to elect a representative to lead them. Before this, their only choices were a monarchy or direct democracy. And a lot of countries such as India, Cambodia, Germany, and Chile use this kind of system in their
How would you feel if you were working so hard and you just quit. I know you would definitely feel awful after it. So, why would the British give up on the Rebels in the American Revolutionary War. They put in all this money and they would just waste all of it if they gave up. The agreements they would have to make with the Rebels are not fair at all to the British.
The American Spirit today is diverse because of the different people and ideas that come from all around the world. There is a democratic government in America which has been continued ever since the frontier. Most of America
To everyone discussing the wars, as well as, the advantages and disadvantages, I want to discuss the reasons why the British lost the Revolutionary War and what they should have done.
They were loyal to the American government and were mostly interested in the war. They wanted America to get the justice they believed it deserved and were ready to do whatever it took to do so. Not all patriots were interested in war just a few years after the American revolution, but a particular group called the “Warhawks” definitely were. The Warhawks wanted to go to war with Britain and were quite happy to hear about the call to arms in 1812, mainly, because they had suggested president Madison to do so. Having patriots in America may have been why their army was stronger than the British, Americans were more enthusiastic about the war.
When war began in 1775, it seemed clear that Britain would win. It had a large, well-organized land army, and the Royal Navy was unmatched on the sea. The Revolutionary War is a big thing and has significant potential. North American had bigger reasons to fight for their independence. North America had an advantage for being the home field because the British had to come overseas to fight us and they had to bring all their supply with them. The Patriots wanted to defend their homeland including their families and their property. In addition, the patriots were more prepared for the war. War was unpopular in England-wasn’t at risk, recently involved in a war with France. England was overseas and it took longer to ship supplies over England had
“How does a rag-tag volunteer army in need of a shower, somehow defeat a global superpower? How do we emerge victorious from the quagmire, leave the battlefield waving Betsy Ross’s flag higher?” Is the start of Guns and Ships, a song from Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Hamilton: An American Musical. But that raises the question: How we exactly did win the Revolutionary War? Even with the home-land advantage, without help, we would have almost certainly lost. Continuing on in Guns and Ships, “Yo. Turns out we had a secret weapon: an immigrant you know and love who’s unafraid to step in. He’s constantly confusing, confounding the British Henchmen. Everyone give it up for America’s favorite fighting Frenchman! [Lafayette!]” If you couldn’t tell before,
Life in America after the Revolutionary war went through major transformations. The first seeds to a feeling of nationalism were planted at the end of the French-Indian war, however, the growing sense of pride and unity fluctuated at the conclusion of the American Revolutionary War. Chiefly, the Americans felt presumptuous in their ability to lead an individual nation, and they still harbored harsh feelings against the British due to their cruelty ensuing the French-Indian War. The Americans took drastic steps to ensure their independence. Namely, the first steps in visualizing the American freedom was the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July four, 1776, which was greatly inspired by Thomas Paine 's
Franklin D. Roosevelt once said, “We and all others who believe in freedom as deeply as we do, would rather die on our feet than live on our knees.” America has thought with this mindset since the beginning. Most Americans today, when asked how they feel about liberty and freedom, will tell you something along those lines. Without the American Revolution, America as we know it would not exist. The revolution was an incredible journey that changed our nation; the Sons of Liberty can be credited with setting it into action.
The American Revolution had huge and idealistic effects on the American population. It was social revolution. To a large extent, it sparked a fire within their hearts over the idea
When the colonies were under the British Crown, the colonists displayed their own identity. They had different practices and beliefs that they were willing to fight for. Thus, the newly found spirit and love for the colonies was the spark that ignited the American Revolution. One could argue that patriotism built America and consequently, America inspires patriotism. Patriotism has withstood the test of time and even through wars and hardships, it unites the American people.
The United States is one of, if not the most, diverse nations in the world. It is often described as a

Many factors contributed to the British losing the American Revolutionary War. By the 1770’s the American colonists were not socially, religiously, or culturally connected to Britain. The colonists has their own ways of life and thus were not British by culture. The majority of the colonists had immigrated to America to escape the rigid class structures of Britain and Europe.
All the sources discussed in this paper are mainly focused on the importance of the death penalty, the history of the death penalty, and cases involving it. Throughout the entries there is a great amount of controversies. Cases against the death penalty were because of the lethal injection used, the belief of tribes, and the positions of abolishers. The books discussed where informational to reader that didn’t know the reasons behind capital punishment. Incorporating papers that supported capital punishment helped support the position paper assigned previously. The different cases are describing the reason for the death penalty, which help people understand why the death penalty is needed.
Arthur Miller, in his play “Death of a Salesman” (1949), asserts that the American Dream is not accomplished by likeability or personal attractiveness, but by hard work and perseverance. This assertion is supported when Biff, Willy’s young amiable son with a handsome face, cannot keep a job or create a steady source of income; and when Bernard, an intellectual who Willy dislikes for his awkwardness, becomes a successful lawyer arguing a case to the Supreme Court. Miller’s purpose is to illustrate how a perverted sense of one’s identity early in life can later lead to a disillusioned realization, in order to bring an awareness to the reader about self identity. He establishes an informal relationship with his audience of adults who are interested
