The Road of the Revolution
As soon as the colonials stepped on the thirteen colonies the American Revolution has begin, but is doesn't meant to be the War of Independence. The War of Independence itself lasted eight years long, which started at the Battles of Lexington and Concord in 1775, and lasted after the Treat of Paris of 1783 were signed. As the Theodore Roosevelt quote "Revolution broke out because England failed to recognize an emerging nation when it saw one." The colonies were to be kept in a state of perpetual economic adolescent and never a heard to come of age. For the results of the Seven Years' War, Britain had a huge debt, and they pass laws to raise money for the Britain, which included the laws of The Navigation Act, taxation without representation.
