As of June 7, 2010, the Afghanistan is officially the longest war in American history. It began October 7, 2001 and has not ended yet. Before that, the Vietnam War was the longest war in American history. It lasted 103 months.
Others claim the Korean War is the longest because it never officially ended, we only signed a cease fire with them.
The Vietnam war was the longest war American had fought in. We got involved with the war in 1954 and it ended in 1973. 58,000 Americans were killed in the war and 2-3 million Vietnamese were killed as well.
The longest and bloodiest war between the whites and Indians was King Phillip's War.
There were approximately 25,000 American soldiers that died in the American Revolution. The British lost around 20,000 soldiers during the war.
Spain in the American Revolutionary War happened in 1781.
The war fought by the 13 colonies to gain independence from England is called the American Revolution. It resulted in the confirmation of the independence of the soon to be formed United States of America.
The American Indian Wars was America's longest war; 1622-1890.

American Indian Wars (American Natives) 1622 to 1890.
America's longest war was against the American Indians (American Natives) which lasted from 1622 (Battle of the James River Settlement which had 347 colonists killed) to the Battle of Wounded Knee in 1890. America's longest war against another COUNTRY (Nation) was the Vietnam War. A war against the country of North Vietnam. America's longest war and bloodiest war would be the Vietnam War with over 58,000 US military men being killed there. America's bloodiest war would be the American Civil War (US Civil War) with nearly a million dead, but Americans were killing Americans...thus the high number.

To the best of my knowledge, the Hundred Years War is still regarded as the longest lasting war. It was fought between England and France in the 14th and 15th Centuries, and it actually lasted about 117 years.

Defining a war in the traditional method, which the conflict was fought against another "COUNTRY" (nation) which had a set government and a national flag, the Vietnam War would be the longest (war against the nation of North Vietnam). Defining war in the broad sense, and not neccessarily fought against a country with a set government and a national flag, then the American Indian Wars (American Frontier Wars) would be America's longest war(s): roughly 1620 until 1890 (ending at the Battle of Wounded Knee).
Longest war-Indian Wars 1622-1890. Longest war (against another recognized country)-Vietnam War 1955-1975.
