daily reporters
Kings and Generals animated historical documentary series on the early modern history continues with a series on the American Revolution – the War of American Independence. In the first video we discussed the main reasons why the Thirteen Colonies rebelled against the British crown ( ), while the second will focus on the beginning of war, as the two sides clashed first at Lexington and Concord, and then near Boston at Bunker Hill ( ). In 1775 and 1776 the war continued with the siege of Boston, American Declaration of Independence, Fall of New York, Battle of Long Island, Ten Crucial Days, the battle of Trenton and the battle of Princeton ( ), while in 1777 the tide turned with the battles of Brandywine, Germantown and Saratoga ( ). France and Spain joined the war around this time, putting even more pressure on the British, who now had to defend their European and Caribbean holdings, too. Despite the fact that the battles of Monmouth Courthouse and Rhode Island were tactically inconclusive, the situation for the Britain continued to deteriorate ( ). However, situation in the South, where there were more Loyalists and the British forces were led by Cornwallis, was better for Britain, which showed itself during the Battles of Savannah, Charleston, Waxhaws, Camden and Kings Mountain ( ). However, the British situation continued to deteriorate leading to the famous battle of Yorktown ( ). In the aftermath of the victory at Yorktown, the war continued, but the Americans now had the upper hand and were able to negotiate from the position of power, gaining recognition and becoming independent.

Happy early 4th of July, everyone!
And first week of your new monarchy
Celebrating conquest of other peoples is an age old human tradition.
Sad
Yah.. no! Fake horror day! Wake up! Celebrating this day is like feeding trout to a baby. It’s just stupid! Know the history.. the real story . You’d say the same.
I’m sitting at a bar on Omaha Beach wishing you all a happy 4th of July
Always make sure people are represented before you tax them
Great conclusion to the series.
Amazing job on this series. Can’t wait for the series on the Civil War to begin
Which one? 😲
@@brianguerino5499They’ve already done the English Civil War.
@@brianguerino5499 The American Civil War
Awesome job! Would **highly** recommend putting this series together into a single video format at some point, as it would probably be quite popular. Especially with many of my fellow Americans who watch the channel
Planning to
I will show this in my class this fall. I teach 6-8th grade.
@@robertherring9277 thanks for being a teacher
How to say you are new to the channel, without saying “I m new to the channel”
@@nikosporgiotis7952 not new at all, been following this channel for at least two years now
Great timing for the release from this series 🎉
Excellent series! I hope you’ll consider doing ones on the 1812, Mexican-American and Civil Wars. The first two could probably work great as member exclusives
Mexican American is very underrated, many civil war figures fought there, also a video on the Texas Revolution would be great
@@yourhistorybase279 The Writer Here: I don’t think there’s any way to adequately explain why the Mexican-American War happened without doing Texas first.
@@TheReaperEagle sounds like double series = double prize 😄, as a Texian I approve

Happy 4th.
France, US’s oldest ally and still its most influential.
You should make one more video, detailing America’s struggles to form it’s modern government in the aftermath of the Peace of Paris.
I am interested in subscribing to your patron to gain access to all of your videos, however I would like to keep them forever.
If I subscribe will I be able to download these videos as well? 🙂
You should make a video on what the US did to the Native Americans again.
*Happy Independence Day! I am proud to be an Asian-American and became a Police Officer to give back to my hometown!* 🇺🇸
Thank you for your service!
Were any Asians involved in American Revolution?
Serve with honor plz
Congrats!!
Arigato
Happy birthday america!! From slovakia
Perfect timing to watch on my lunch break 👌
What’s tragic is I’m from Ohio but knew almost none of what involved Ohio in this video. In my defense, we learn almost no Ohio history, apart from a watered down version in 4th or 5th grade. Great video as usual!
Great timing!!!
There are things that I learn from this video that I didn’t know more after yorktown, this is interesting.
Happy 4th of July, it is the date today from The Philippines.
I feel dumb for not realizing that you were planning this on purpose; putting the *actual* acknowledgement of independence out on July 4th. Well played, K&G, well played.
And I feel dumb for realizing only after reading your comment
The US actual independence day is July 2 not July 4th. On July 2, 1776 the Continental Congress passed the Virginia Resolution, “these United Colonies are and of a right ought to be free and independent states. They then spent until July 0:01 4th “editing” the declaration. On July 4th the declaration was read to the crowds in Philadelphia and ordered printed. The declaration didn’t declare independence its purpose was to justify American independence to the world. However, people associated independence with the declaration so they began celebrating July 4th instead of July 2nd when independence was really established.
They could have taught this in school, but nope. When we celebrate this holiday, it’s always ‘Declaration of Independence,’ like it was announced to the whole world or something. @@rebeccaorman1823
clever very clever
Thank you for doing this video. Most people tend to think/forget that the American Revolution didn’t end with the victory at Yorktown but instead lasted for years afterwards. Nice to see the global continuations of the conflict being explored and discussed.
the most important takeaway was that the American Revolution developed into a world war after Saratoga. Independence was effectively for New England after 1777 with The South winning its own independence in 1781 and then France and Spain wanted to get some territorial gains before peace was allowed to return.
Thank you for giving this complex subject its due without bias as expected, it’s a series I’ve always wanted
As a Native American from Ohio, I do want to thank the channel for at least acknowledging the tribes stuck in between the powers here. Especially the massacre at Gnadenhutten. This has been an excellent series, and perfect timing on the final episode! Happy Independence Day, my fellow Americans!
Yes that it true, for them it was a turn to the worse. They did land a few brilliant hits in “Little Turtles War” a few years later, but for them the outcome of the war could hardly been much worse in the long terms.
Happy Independence day!
Happy Independence Day!
Everyone born in America is Native American
There are still natives in Ohio.
Which tribe? Do they live in communities and reservations?
I’m so glad you are doing this, thank you!
Yall have no idea how helpful the coherent mapping is! These are gold. 🎉
Thanks for sharing this amazing video. It’s really helpful!
