Events
-
The Boston Tea Party
As the Sons of Liberty dressed as Indians to protest the British Government on taxes, this is a big event toward independence. -
The Ride of Paul Revere
"The British are coming!" has been a quote that I knew growing up before I even learned about Paul Revere. Revere's ride was the signal that could have caused the lost of the battle if he wouldn't have made it in my opinion. -
George Washington Named Commander in Chief
This is one of the First times you really hear about Washington. He is a big name and was a big reason we won the war and he became our first president. -
Battle of Bunker Hill
Although the British won, it was bittersweet as they lost 2000 troops. This was a big step for the colonist even thought it was a lost. -
Richard Henry Lee Proposes Independence
After so many years of being in war and under British, Richard Henry Lee made the smart thought that they become independent. -
Declaration of Independence Signed
This was the start of America and the Independance of the people. This is a reason I get to be who I want to be today. -
Washington Crosses the Delaware
This wasn't only where Washington captured Trenton, it s also a recognizable picture that is seen anywhere. Washington Continued his battle and I believe he brought us to independence. -
Flag Resolution
Betsy Rose made the first American flag. This was one of the first signs of Americas independence and freedom. -
The French Alliance
The French joined alliance with America and helped us fight British. If not for the French we might not have became a independent nation.
