Mercenaries fight for whomever pays them. Seldom their own country, and often not a country at all.
Mercenaries are people who participate in a armed battle for pay. Mercenaries are people who will work for anyone who pays with military action, if its blowing up a building to assaination. USA has never (or never revealed it if they did) used a mercenarie for they will go through anything to get paid. Try playing mercenaries 2: world in flames for your own mercenarie expirence
mercenaries in the American revolution were commonly known as "hessians" they were German mercenaries hired by the british. the term mercenaries used now, was used differently in those days. most of the time, the hessians were prisoners, or simply poor peasants, and received either little pay, or just that days' food. However, it is said that they were well military trained.
Germany
Americans had the advantage of the home court. They knew the land well. They also had more to lose because it was their home. The British people didn't care about the fight, they hired German mercenaries to do most of the fighting. The British had a very long way to bring over men and supplies.

the hessians were professional soldiers that were hired to fight for britain that needed mercenaries "Hessian" is a name given to all German troops deployed by the Crown Forces during the American War of Independence (most were from the German state of Hess). They were auxilliary troops who were "rented" out by their rulers, a fairly common military practice in 18th century Europe. King George III was of German descent and had family loyalties with some of the German princes, who loaned their troops to Britain.
Probably. He was taking a poorly trained band of soldiers to fight some of the most powerful mercenaries in the world. (The Hessians)
It was the senators and the patricians who hired the thugs who clubbed to death Tiberius and 300 of his supporters. It was the same people who hired Cretan mercenaries to shoot into the crowd of supporters of Gaius and the people who chased him, which led to him committing suicide.
