Why The American Revolution And Great Britain Won?
What if… What if American colonists lost the American Revolution and Great Britain won?
If American colonists lost I believe more people would die or put on trial for defying the king. I think the king will send more soldiers to fight for him and to kill the leaders and anyone who defied him. We would have the country that we have today. If Great Britain won we might still be under the rule of a monarch. Although the American colonists lost the American Revolution I believe they would try again. But the king would have the upper hand because he won. I believe the country wouldn't even exist and would be ruled over by kings. If American colonists lost we wouldn't have democracy and freedom that they so wish. And even if the king didn't kill

It is impossible to have absolutely no taxes yet they were a little extreme and the colonist needed to understand that the taxes were kind of used for good.

    The Battle of Yorktown was a resounding victory against the number one country in the world with the help of the French. Had this victory not happened Great Britain would have easily taken control of the American territories and all of the colonist would have been executed for treason. Obviously if the colonies are all deceased then there will be no United States, the country that we live in today, and we could very well be British right now.…

    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.…

    The colonists eventually started to unite and think of themselves as Americans and not subjects of the British realm. The colonists also learned that resistance and violence were the only way to get results in their struggles with Britain. I agree that if Britain had made that one concession of allowing Americans to represent the colonies in Parliament, they might have been able to avoid the American Revolution. Although, I wonder how…

The British are at war with the colonies, and unfortunately, for the colonies, a neutral observer in such a time would have picked the British for the win hands down due to their immense military strength, the colonies’ lack of metallic wealth, and the geographic fragmentation of the colonies.…

    The British could never have won the war for American Independence. The rebellion could probably have been crushed initially by firm action under a commander-in-chief who was not governed by a policy that varied from year to year based on conciliation and suppression and which imposed upon him the dual role of commanding general and peace commissioner. With the rebellion crushed it might have been possible to make a political settlement short of independence where the colonies could have remained within the British Empire for a period of years that would benefit both sides. But once the government had decided on a war of attrition (which it then tried to run from a distance of 3,000 miles), with its soldiers fighting from conditions that varied from…

    In fact, Marx, Lenin, terrorists and others were bothering not the Great Britain but its enemies or friends, and that's quite another matter. After all, no one even stumbled upon the idea to grant political asylum for the enemies of the throne and of the establishment or for the fighters for the independence of the British colonies (the becoming of many future undertakers of the British Empire took place in British colleges and universities, but at those times they had not fledged yet and had not grown into the enemies of the crown).
