What made the American Revolutionary War not a true revolutionary?
A real revolution is where one group tries to overthrow the existing government of its country and take over themselves. In the American "Revolution" the American Patriots were not trying to take over England, they wanted to separate their land from England. This makes the American Revolution more of a colonial insurrection, or colonial rebellion. Similarly, a civil war is much the same as a revolution - two groups contending for control of ALL of a single country. The south in the US Civil War did not want to control the north, merely to separate from it. The real name given in the Official Records of the "Civil War" published by the US government is "The War of the Rebellion". Like so many other things about that war, nobody can agree on much, not even what to call it.

Should the American Revolution be called the British revolution because marked changes in British colonial policy were more responsible for the final political division?
It was the people of the 13 Colonies who fought for and gained their freedom; it was THEIR revolution, their victory and their freedom. Now, it so happens that the colonies were provoked by the British government, which later learned a thing or two from the events of 1775-83, but that doesn't make it their revolution. In fact, the thinking behind it is odd. Would it occur to you to call the slaves' rebellion in Haiti 'French', for example? Yes, it's true. British policy changed following the American Revolution, but it SHOULD be called the American Revolution, because it was the AMERICANS who revolted.
