Best Answer

France jumped in on the side of the Americans after they won a decisive victory at the Battle of Saratoga. France waited to see if America had a chance of winning against France's rival, Great Britain before they supported the colonies. They had provided some military assistance covertly prior to Saratoga, but after that they sent in a 10,000 man Army and the French Navy and became openly allied with the Patriots. Without France's support, America probably would not have become an independent country at that time because of the huge monetary and military support.
