REVOLUTIONARY WAR GOBLES

The American Revolutionary War (1775-1783), also known as the American War of Independence, was a conflict between the 13 colonies and Great Britain. France intervened as an ally of the colonies, and the war resulted in freedom for the colonies, becoming a separate nation, the United States of America.
