In Colonial America, there were only thirteen American colonies at the time that the Revolutionary Movement began simply because only that many had thus far been organized. It should be noted that there were, at the time, numerous other British colonies throughout the Americas, both to the north and to the south of what would soon become the (thirteen) United States of America.
