REVOLUTIONARY
WAR
What
was
the
American
Revolution?
The
American
Revolution
was
the
name
of
the
war
that
the
colonists
fought
to
gain
their
freedom
from
Great
Britain.
A
revolution
is
an
overthrow
of
one's
government.
Why
did
the
American
Revolution
take
place?
The
American
Revolution
took
place
because
the
colonists
and
Great
Britain
disagreed
about:
•
Taxation
without
representation:
the
colonists
had
no
say
over
the
taxes
that
Great
Britain
wanted
them
to
pay;
•
Trade
agreements:
the
British
would
allow
the
colonists
to
trade
only
with
them;
•
Self-government:
the
colonists
wanted
more
say
in
their
own
government.
The
American
Revolution
began
on
April
19,
1775
in
the
towns
of
Lexington
and
Concord,
Massachusetts,
and
lasted
until
1782
when
peace
talks
were
begun.
