what makes the american revolution exciting compared with, say, the french revolution? were there events like the declaration of the third estate that they were the new national assembly, tennis court oath and the storming of the bastille?
we don't learn about american history in britain (lol)
If you really want to reduce it to a dick-measuring contest, the American revolution has plenty of interesting events, factions, etc.
-The Tea Act/The Boston Tea Party
-Loyalists v. Revolutionaries
-"Common Sense" by Thomas Paine
-Women acting as spies and couriers for the Revolution
-Deborah Samson fighting in the war, disguised as a man
-The Battle of Bunker Hill, where something like 800 British soldiers died
-Revolutionaries stealing gunpowder and other supplies from British forts
-Crossing the Delaware on Christmas to fuck some Hessian shit up
-Battle of Saratoga
edit - god damn, that's a cover
