Revolutionary Ideas
When the Revolutionary war finally ended it caused a sensational impact in the world, the series of events that went on before the Americans won the war that made people that believed in the Spanish that in that time were known because of the power they had mostly on all. After everyone heard about what the Americans were trying to do they got the guts now to confront the Spanish because through what they were showing off, they weren't as powerful as they thought. The Spanish intimidated the others because they were formal in a way and had order, this made the people believe they were powerful enough to get what they wanted without it being denied.
When the Americans won the war it made the people that were around feel now less intimidated by the Spanish.
When the Declaration of Independence of America was finally signed and accepted they inspired people because of what it said like ¨All men are equal.¨that caused a powerful effect in different groups mostly because the people in that time had slaves, this created conflict because not all the people were in favour of it; the war also spread the idea of liberty to other countries. Through out this event people believed that they deserved liberty.

In Name of the Women!
Women in the Revolutionary war helped in so many ways, they are not only the person who carries a life in her belly for nine months and the ones that give you life, just by saying that a women is a gift in every men´s life. Through this war they were the ones that took care of the injured, the ones that cooked to feed them or the ones that got water for them; despise all the remarkable stuff they did they were not treated the way they should afterwards. They sacrificed themselves and just by that fact they should've gain rights not only a name which made them recognized.
The women couldn't vote or work in something they wanted amid the job as a housewife they had, it was exceptionally amazing what they did, and they are remembered for the hard work they did to keep the soldiers safe and sound. Indeed they had to obtain as a thank you at least one legal right.
Now a days we see successful women as we see successful men, we are all equal no matter what gender, economic status or culture we have; in some places we see that women are still treated like before but we the women are brave, loving, fighters, and so much more that we deserve to be treated with equal respect.

The Revolutionary War Ends...
Americans finally get freedom, the war ends with an unforgettable moment in history known as the Battle of Saratoga fought on the Hudson river in 1777 in Saratoga, New York. In this battle Lord Cornwallis surrendered to the Patriots. After they surrender they marched to Canada and left the land of the Americans.
The British army was under the control of General Howe and Lord Cornwallis, they had a plan that was to create a surprise attack to the Patriots but the Patriots in that moment had a plan of their own. The British failed in other plans they had like for example the failure of the British to gain supplies or the Continental Army led by George Washington that prevented General Howe to join forces with General Burgoyne.
This mistakes committed by the British made the Patriots take advantage of them and led them through victory.
Factor That Led the Patriots to Win the War
The Patriots were always trying to win the war, all the struggle they went through, all the battles they lost, the people they lost, the winters they passed, they pain, and fatigue. The Patriots kept on trying until they got what they wanted, they had perseverance. The paper the woman made in that Revolution was amazing, they helped the injured, cooked for the soldiers, gave them water and even shot the cannons, without them the soldiers would loose time doing it instead they gained time with the woman helping them. Amid the perseverance and the help of the woman they also won it mostly because of George Washington that was the source of power of all the soldiers, they all were trained and not only physically but also emotionally. Due to the personality in each of the persons that played a role in the Revolutionary War, the effort of all the people was not in vain. They never gave up!

Patriots vs. Loyalists
The Loyalists were people who didn't get along with the Patriot, they saw them as vermin. Loyalists we in favor of law and order most of all they feared disorder. John Adams was a faithful Patriot and Jonathan Sewed a Loyalist, they once had an encountered with each other and Jonathan told John not to mess with England as John replies that he will always be with America no matter what. About 1/5 of the colonists were Loyalists and many more were neutral, as this caused many troubles like in the separation of families etc. They both had stereotypes of each other, this causing the rivalry.
The Loyalists appealed to Native Americans and slaves. Various things caused the rivalry of the Loyalists to the Patriots.
