I didn't.
Today we'll be talking about the Revolutionary War and the
groups inside of it.
The first group that will be talking about is the
white majority and the white majority.
There are white males and white females.
When it came to the white males, males were usually
soldiers fighting for the British or taking sides of the
rebellion. They were the ones on the front lines, doing
all the dirty work to see who will win the
war. When it came to the British government's also passed
laws during the male population to take oaths of allegiance
to the new states, they wanted any way possible to
recruit as many people to gain mass amounts of people.
Naturally, we're talking about the white women.
When talking about the white women were actually referring to
them on the Patriots side because they had more of
a job than they did for the British.
Women were shouldered with enormous domestic and child rearing responsibilities,
like taking care of the families taking care of the
houses. They also helped with clothing, food and homesteads.
A lot of the women opened up their houses for
a lot of the Patriots, so they had a place
to say instead of out on the on the battlefield.
Still other women accompanied the Army as camp followers, serving
as cooks, washerwoman and nurses still helping the Army and
his benefits as many ways possible.
The next two people were talking about is Minority Group.
We'll be talking about African Americans and Native Americans in
the minority group.
In the minority group, there were powerful Indian people had
allied themselves with the British like the Mohawk in the
creek. They remain loyal to the empire as a respect
to their first meeting when they first colonized here in
the States, African Americans, a lot of them and the
Patriots side refused to let slaves serve in the Army,
although George Washington wanted to free the blacks.
But when it came to the British side, some slaves
were actually promised freedom if they fought for them.
Between 2010 and 20,000 slaves gain their freedom because of
this revolution, which is a huge chunk.
The next trip we were talking about are the major
groups, when it comes to the major groups, will be
talking about the Patriots and loyalists when it comes to
the Patriots the Patriots during the war were heavily at
a disadvantage.
They had poor amounts of supplies.
They had poor clothes, ammunition and tents.
They weren't as wealthy.
When they weren't as wealthy.
They could not supply any of the things listed above.
The only thing they had going for them was their
ambition and their tenacity and the perseverance they wanted to
be free of the British.
They just wanted their own independence.
As for the loyalists, many loyalists were royal officials and
merchants with extensive business ties to Great Britain.
They had an advantage of supplies and huge amounts of
wealth. The British could pay off in gold and silver.
The American forces relied on paper backed by loans obtained
of your.
Their goal was to take down the rebellion at all
costs. It seems as though that the loyalists had the
upper hand being that they had all this wealth and
supplies to beat them.
And finally, we'll be talking about what happened after the
war. Yeah, went after the war, the rebellion one and
they gained their independence.
The treaty was recognized the independence of the United States,
which was called the Treaty of Paris.
Individual states were encouraged to refrain from persecuting the loyalist
out of respect.
They wanted to make sure that everyone was safe.
They were also encouraged to return their confiscated property.
Anything that was captured during the war.
The whole leverage against the loyalists were now returned after
showing the sun respect, everyone shown a wave of prosperity
inside the colonies after having new independence.
