The American Revolution occurred between 1776 and 1781 (depending on what you consider to be the beginning; and the treaty that actually ended it wasn't signed until 1783).

The Japanese had just defeated the Russians in 1905, thus the Great White Fleet show of force cruise. This was to let the "Yellow Race" know that the "White Race" was still a power to be reckened with.
