Description

Question:
” The American Revolution can be divided into two phases. The first of these phases lasted from roughly 1763-1776. During that period the American colonists began realizing what their “inherent rights and privileges” as Englishmen were and began protesting what they felt were the violations of these “rights and privileges.” The second phase lasted from roughly 1776 to 1789. During this period the actual war was fought with the British and the above “inherent rights and privileges” were reexamined and redefined.” Discuss. You would do well to include in your discussion a judgment as to whether the American Revolution was conservative, preservative or radical in nature. Do NOT go beyond 1783 in this essay. Do NOT discuss the several issues leading to the drafting and ratification of the United States Constitution.

The essay should contain
1) statement-what do you think the quote mean
2) Do you agree or disagree
3) Why do you agree or disagree.

A revolution is an overthrow and a through replacement of an established government or political system by the people governed. Many revolutions have taken place throughout the existence of the human race, but it’s up to you to say if it’s actually revolutionary, causing a complete or dramatic change. ‘Revolutions’ like The American Revolution (1775-1783), a fight between thirteen colonies and how they wanted independence from their mother country, England. England was the most powerful country at the time, but the thirteen colonies surprised a lot of people when they won the war and named themselves the United States of America. Many say that the revolution left a mark and is what makes America “America” today, but many things didn’t change until many years later, like women’s rights to vote, or slavery, which makes me believe that the Revolution wasn’t really revolutionary.
