Best Answer

the 13 colonies gained independence from the British empire and became the United States of America
Minutemen were called to arms to prevent the British troops from establishing further martial law.
The American Colonists rebelled against the rule of the British because the Colonists wanted to be free. After the Colonists won the Battle of Saratoga, the French agreed to help them and together they defeated the British and the USA became an independent nation, with slavery intact. "All Men Are Created Equal" did not apply to slaves until after the Civil War.

its actually the war of independence

after Israel became a state the Arab armies tried 2 take it over.. or if u mean the revolution the American colonies wanted freedom from the british so they had a war..

Although This Information is True...Here is more Information...

The American Revolutionary War (1775-1783), also known as the American War of Independence, was a conflict that erupted between Great Britain and revolutionaries within thirteen British colonies, who declared their independence as the United States of America in 1776. The war was the culmination of the American Revolution, a colonial struggle against political and economic policies of the British Empire. The war eventually widened far beyond British North America; many Native Americans also fought on both sides of the conflict.

Throughout the war, the British were able to use their naval superiority to capture and occupy coastal cities, but control of the countryside (where most of the population lived) largely eluded them. After an American victory at Saratoga in 1777, France, Spain, and the Netherlands entered the war against Great Britain. French involvement proved decisive, with a naval victory in the Chesapeake leading to the surrender of a British army at Yorktown in 1781. The Treaty of Paris in 1783 recognized the independence of the United States.

What caused the war was that the British were not willing to give the Americans independence, so they sent in their troops to try to enforce their laws. The Americans resisted , raised their own army and fought back, so war broke out.
