Group Dynamics: Early American Colonies Group dynamics played a large role in the move towards independence of the American colonies. Since the first ships landed on the shores of the newly found land, settlements emerged. Each with their own social structure, strengths, and weaknesses. These settlements would have to come together and work as group in order to obtain, maintain, and protect the freedom and independence they desired. In order to obtain independence, the colonies would need…

The American Revolution was the beginning of the country as we know it. The United Sates at one time was not united and it was not free. The war that was waged gave the United States its’ freedom from Great Britain, and showed the world that Americans could do anything that they set their mind to. Though, just like any struggle for freedom, there had to be people willing to fight in it, and there had to be a reason to put their lives on the line. Thomas Paine’s pamphlet, Common Sense, ignited a…

The atmosphere in the colonies before the stamp act had been slowly declining. The colonists were becoming frustrated with the policies that Britain was implementing, in terms of relations with the Native Americans, British expansion, and colony taxation. The Stamp Act was last straw for many colonists. After the passing of the Stamp Act, many colonists could no longer sit idly by, and had to do something. Although he Stamp Act was not the turning point, it created the conditions necessary for…

The American Revolution necessary for independence and freedom according to the Americans. The reasons as to why they needed to leave the British empire was indeed necessary, but did it really fix anything for American? In my opinion “The American Revolution” was not very revolutionary for the U.S and the citizens. The U.S. was in debt, no rights changed for women and slaves, and U.S. was not united after the Revolution so nothing really changed for the Americans after the war. The war began…

Because of the glorious revolution, numerous acts and disputes had taken place between 1763 and 1775.

During the late 1800s, Britain began to augment its presence in its American colonies, but with pressing domestic issues, only minimal attention was initially paid to the colonies.
