Why English Won The Revolutionary War

5) Yes, the English lost the revolutionary war more than the colonist won it because the colonist barely won the war. The colonist had virtually no chance against the British. The British had money, the best navy in the world, and a large standing army. The only reason why America had the advantage that they did was because of France and Spain. After the battle of Saratoga, the French allied with the colonists. They sent tons of money in aid and they also fought with Britain across the pond, attacking thousands British merchant ships. Britain gained large war debts, the trade which Britain relied on was interrupted. They also lost a large amounts of their men, and lost the entire continent of North America, which made their empire vastly shrink.
The colonists also winning against such a large world power gave the idea to many other empires under British control, that, they too, could seize from Britain’s power.
