Britain's military was the best in the world. Their soldiers were well equipped, well disciplined, well paid, and well fed. The British navy dominated the seas. Funds were much more easily raised by the Empire than by the Continental Congress.
Some of those funds were used to hire Hessian mercenaries to fight the Americans.
On the other hand, the Americans had many intangible advantages.
