Ports were all the rage

Without one you were fucked

Yeah and America has a pretty good view of the ocean

Now you might not need one

I can explain how the US revolution played out btw

If you're interested

Plus the british weren't on their turf

Katze I think you missed the point

America didn't win its independence from just luck

No? No one interested?

I am

Maybe later

What history is interesting

Katze it won its independence cuz of coincidences

Especially when people are supposed to learn from their mistakes

Well you see the French and British were going on about their rivarly the way imperialists go about their problems

Like socialists

Coincidences make the world go around

War and gaining more power

yeup

The only reason Norway works properly today is cuz of coincidences

The only reason America is a thing is cuz of coincidences

So the French threatened the British colonies, the most important one being the US of course

no e.e

The only reason the ussr failed was cuz of coincidences

War wasn't a coincidence

Nothing is certain

So the Brits fought a big war to stop the French from taking their colonies

They won

It’s like the butterfly effect

But the cost was too high

One decision can make or break a country

So they increased taxes on their colonies to get back in shape

And i guess Americans just hated the idea of taxation before the US even existed

So they started to demand independence

Now it's unclear who shot the first bullet that started the war

But some suspect that it might've been the American forces

It wouldn’t surprise me if it was the muricans

And somewhere around that time the French revolution happened so goes to show how bad this war was for both Britain and France

Muricans*
