<come up with good thesis>
The American revolution was a truly revolutionary war for the American society. It was the start of the U.S truly becoming a country as it broke away from Britain and stopped being a colony. The Revolutionary war truly shaped how
America would be for some time and how the people would view their country for years to come. The Revolutionary war truly inspired many Americans to fight for their freedom and to shape how they believed their country should be. The Revolutionary war truly was the war where Americans fought for their natural rights and to break away from Britain. Before the revolutionary war many Americans rebelled against Britain in many ways. As stated in document 3 “ We then were ordered by our commander to open the hatches and take out all the chests of tea and throw them overboard”. This act was known as the Boston Tea party this was when
Americans rebelled against the tax on tea by throwing the tea into the water. This shows that during the revolution Americans were able to unite against Britain. Another piece of evidence that shows how the revolution was able to unite many Americans is in document 7 “Society in every state is a blessing, but government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one”. This is a quote from the book common sense this book was written during the revolution in order to tell Americans their natural right, but one thing that stands out from this book is that it was written in a way that all Americans could understand it. Lastly the impact of the revolution on the people is depicted in document 2 this image shows British soldiers firing on civilians. This was a political cartoon used to show how Britain was mistreating colonist and to rally the colonist against Britain. The author is displaying that the British are mass murdering colonist in Boston to show that without a doubt the colonist are

    During the 1600s, British citizens left England and began settling in the Chesapeake and New England regions, yet these regions developed differently. Migrants came to the New World with distinct motives that, in effect made the regions develop differently; the New Englanders came in search of religious freedom while the Chesapeake settlers came in search of economic prosperity. The New Englanders search for religious freedom caused them to develop a diverse economy, societies with tightly bound communities that stressed education and finally a political system based on church membership; meanwhile in the Chesapeake settlers search for economic prosperity helped them to develop a farming and trading economy, a society with spread out plantations whose owners ruled over the black slaves and a political system with all the power in the hands of wealthy, land-owning, white men. Thus, New England and Chesapeake regions developed different socially, politically and economically primarily because of their motives.…
