Could the US have lost the Revolutionary War without France?

no, it wouldn’t. America didn’t win a war, as the revolution wasn’t a war, it was a revolution, it was essentially just a rebellion. As an American and somewhat of an historian, there is no possible way that the Colonists could have won that war without the help of France.

Why didn’t the Revolutionary War happen right away?

War didn’t happen right away. First there were protests and arguments. Then some small skirmishes between the colonists and the local British army. Things just got worse and worse over the course of years until the colonies and Great Britain were at war.

What really started the Revolutionary War?

The American Revolution was principally caused by colonial opposition to British attempts to impose greater control over the colonies and to make them repay the crown for its defense of them during the French and Indian War (1754–63).

What would have happened if the Revolutionary War had not happened?

Attempts by the British to rein in that state of affairs caused the American Revolutionary War. Had it not happened, the colonies would have eventually entered into a commonwealth realm association with the United Kingdom like Canada and Australia.

What would the US be like today without the American Revolution?

The same US would exist today even without the Revolution, but the fervent patriotism and universal ideals of freedom and equality would not be as widespread as it today. If you’re going to make this point, you have to explain what happened to the forces which caused the revolution. They didn’t just evaporate.

What would have happened if the Canadian Revolution never happened?

But then again, Canada ended up not leaving any space for Indians, it did become a wealthy commonwealth eventually and was involved with England’s wars during World War I and World War II. So not much difference if the revolution did not happen.

How did the American Revolution change America?

The American Revolution was practically our first major war, by definition. The American Revolution evolved from beginning to end, between 1765 and 1783 in which the thirteen colonies rejected the British monarchy and aristocracy. They defeated the rule of Great Britain and founded the United States of America.
