Hessians were German mercenaries hired by the British during the American Revolutionary War. Primarily from the region of Hesse, these soldiers were recruited to bolster British forces against the American colonists seeking independence. They fought in various battles, motivated by financial incentives rather than loyalty to the British crown. Their involvement highlighted the global dimensions of the conflict, as it drew on foreign soldiers to support British military efforts.

When the British was fighting in America, during the American Revolutionary War, the soldiers had little knowledge of the landscape. An example would be that soldiers could go into hiding in certain areas or territories that were not on the map of America at that time, and the British found it impossible to find the American soldiers that lived in country or rural regions of the New World.
Because Americans lived on the continent of NORTH AMERICA and were fighting the British who OWNED most of NORTH AMERICA...Americans were COLONIES of Great Britain. American COLONISTS wanted INDEPENDENCE from their British owners or leadership. Britain would NOT allow that independence, so the Colonists fought them for it.
