The Consequences Of The American Revolution

The American Revolution concluded two centuries of British monarchy and aristocracy for most of the American colonies and gave a birth to the new nation, called The United States of America. The Revolutionary period was both terrifying and upsetting. To some it was a time of progress, while to others it led to dislocation. This war changed the way the American thinks in terms of freedom. According to Eric Foner “No idea is more fundamental to Americans’ sense of themselves as individuals and as a nation more than freedom.” (Foner). The American Revolution carried noteworthy and historic consequences such as free suffrage, religious freedom, equality, bring to an end the lifelong indentured servitude, and the role of women in American
society.
