I did not fight any country during the American Revolution; it occurred nearly two centuries before I was born. If the question is asking who the national combatants were in the American Revolution, see the Related Question below. If you mean America, the Americans fought the British government, and a few native Indian tribes that were allied to the British. The embroynic US however, were not 100% and many Americans fought with the British.
i believe its the civil right revolution at home and the Vietnam war abroad
Thirteen American colonies (Rebels) side: USA, France, Spain, Holland, pirates, native Americans. British side (loyalists, patriots) side: Great Britain, some minor German states, tiny amount of native Americans
John Locke's Two Treatises of Government (1690) is widely considered to be the textbook of the American revolution.
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.
