Long-Term Causes Causes that build over a long time. Stamp Act, 1765 American Revolution, 1776 Immediate Causes Causes that are closer in time to the event they cause. Common Sense, 1776 American Revolution, years

American Revolution was a civil war – 1/5 of the Americans were loyal to England – Called “Tories” (supporters of the King) – 500,000 Loyalists helped the British – They were: Indians, Anglicans, Slaves, Wealthy

African-Americans could choose sides – Some fought for the British (about 4000) – 5000 fought for America – 100,000 slaves just ran away

Saratoga, 1777 – Americans win; French promise to give $$ and troops to help America Yorktown, 1781 – Americans and French trap the British army; British surrender – America wins the war!

Treaty of Paris, 1783 – America gets all land to the Mississippi River Cost of the war: $101 million ($2.4 trillion today) 217,000 American deaths

War united them, but, now with freedom, would they stay united?
