The Revolutionary war

How Did the Revolutionary War Start

How did the Revolutionary war start, how did America start? The Revolutionary war all started because of the French and Indian War. The Colonist didn't have any weapons for the war. So Brittan supplied the weapons and the colonists won the French and Indian War. After that war King Gorge was in debt. And scene it was because of the responds for the colonists the king started taxing the colonies.

The Boston Tea Party

The Boston Tea Party started because of the tea tax. The sons of Liberty came up with a plain They would dress up like Indians and dump the tea in to the harbor. They dressed up like Indians because they didn't want to get punished for there actions.

Taxes

When the colonists first got taxed they were

completely out raged They protested and

did any thing to get rid of the taxes. Even

though they weren't taxed to much they

still hated it. They were independent before

and then they felt like they were being

bossed around. The king was being

pressured and as you know dropped every

tax but the tea tax to stay in charge.

The Revolutionary war

The colonels didn't want war, they just

wanted to be independent. But King

Gorge wanted to stay in charge of the

colonies so they had war. The war

started on April, 18th 1775 and ended

in 1783 but the last battle was in

1781.

Free

The colonists, now Americans were over joyed that they were free. In stead of kings there were presidents. Gorge Washington was the first president of the united states. Now we have the first African American,

president Oboma. To this day we' re independent and making history.
