>founding a country to dodge taxes
i can respect that
There's a reason it's called the Revolution and not the Rebellion
We won
We were legitimately oppressed.
Can you imagine having to keep a British soldier in your home?
>Not freedom fighters
I bet you are a filthy commie.
They visited us for five years
They crashed on our couched for over 100 years.
Did the revolutionary fighters had an independent state in mind from the start or did the just want to be more autonomous?
They wanted a nation of their own. They lay out their griefs here:
Initially just more autonomy, basically their problem was with the British Parliment, not the Crown. They essentially wanted to be what today is known as the Commonwealth of Nations. For the first year of their terrorist insurgency it was common practise to toast the King's health in their officer's mess/wardroom.
They always ruin our newly acquired beaches with blood and guts and stuff...
>basically their problem was with the British Parliment, not the Crown.
Wrong.

>He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States
Wow! That was a grief the colonists shared against the king!
No we had to if we didn't do it we'd be retarded limeys.
It was self-defense. We were defending our descendents from being faggy brits
It's true
Lexington and Concord were in April 1775, after which the C.Congress tried to reconcilliate with King George, instead he called them rebellious traitors. It was not until January of 1776, almost a year after the first battle, that George Washington halted the practise of toasting to the King.
Remember that the first flag adopted ny the Continental Congress had a Union Jack in place of the stars. Literally Commonwealth tier.
You probably believe that the war of 1812 was about trade restrictions with Napoleanic France and the practise of boarding U.S. vessels in search of Brit desserters.
Why are Yanks so susceptible to propaganda? Even 18th and 19th century propaganda.
Freedom Fighters*

Spem Reduxit desu
We don't get taught about the revolutionary war here. It is a footnote in our 1000+ year history. Our only exposure to it is Hollywood's propaganda movies about it.
>Why are Yanks so susceptible to propaganda?
Hollywood is powerful. We are slowly rewriting history for the entire world.
look up what terrorist means you cuck
>France wins it for America
By sending in a few people to train and lead us?? Learn some fucking history.
No one watches T.V or hollywood anymore, only old people who will die soon.
What a cancerous area of land
>>Routinely warns you not to make trouble with Grench or Indians or to encroach on their lands
>>you are American, you do it anyway
>>war breaks out
It was part of the Seven Years war dipshit.
>>beg Brits to defend you
Yes, no Americans fought it was all British because American wasn't a country yet. They didn't beg for help because they had already started fighting as you pointed out.
>>Brits agree to send British men across an ocean to fight and die in a distant wilderness
Not really they were fighting all over the world then. Also, your country wouldn't fucking exist without the The French Indian War show some gratitude you syrup guzzling turd.
Well we were sniping their officers which was pissing them off.
>gratitude
>yanks
Fuck 2% yank terrorists, long live the Queen.
Move to Britain now pls
Lolno
By defeating Black Dick Howe's fleet thereby cutting off Brits in America. A feat the French only pulled off due to British honour. They had the wind and surprise, but thought it ungentlemenly to attack the French fleet in this fashion and let them form a line of battle, despite being outnumbered by the French. Obviously the French won the battle, the soldiers were cut off from resupply, a backdoor, and the possibility of reinforcement, effectively putting an end to the war.
Without French intervention, particularly naval, America never happens
Learn some history
Lame, we get to learn our 200 year history in excruciating detail for 10 years straight, often times repeating the same war 3 different times, each time explaining how the old lesson was just all lies and this time it's "for real".
Meanwhile skipping 98% of the rest of the worlds history ( that didn't involve americans ). If that's not even enough, they skipped the fucking Vietnam war and Korean war because "that was to recent".
So we get to relearn the revolutionary war, civil war, WW1 and WW2, over and over again for 10 years.
ISN'T THAT SO MUCH FUN?
t. Benedict arnold
Nah, I'd rather toss you free masons to the sea, America belongs to the Queen.
It was an unnecessary theatre of the 7 years war forced on Britain in large part by overzealous Americans.
Yes, Americans did fight in the French and Indian war but could only win with the majority of fighters coming from Britain. Something they initially agreed to pay for and house but later reneged on.
>1000
>not 3000 years like China or Iran
baka
And after we beat them on land we inspired them to do their revolution. We also inspired many other countries with our constitution, Declaration of Independence, and success of our revolution. Meanwhile, Canada is a submissive bitch that has never done anything notable.
Monarchy's are anti-democracy, do you hate freedom? Constitutional monarchies don't count so do try pullin that shit on me.
Go die
You die first terrorist.
Leave America
No America, your revolution did not inspire the French Revolution, that's just more of your nonsense propaganda that no country on earth believes except you people.
As for Canada, I kniw Americans spell things strangely sometimes but loyalty and cuckold's horns are not synonymous.
And, Canadians have done plenty, half the shit Americans take credit for was actually done in large part by Canada.
Remember that time men went to the moon? After PM Diefenbaker dissolved the Avro program he "loaned" a group of Canadian and Brit aerospace scientists to NASA where they formed the core if what is today called the Johnson Space Center, the group in charge of manned flight research. It was chief flight engineer and Canadian Owen Maynard that designed the lunar lander, which you'll recognise as the thing that makes a lunar landing possible.
Your entire history and culture are full of these little behind the scenes moments by Canadians that very few people are aware of.
>be Canada
>have the queen of england face on the bills
I'm sorry but the onloy way to get independance is through fighting. We did it. The Irish did it and the Americans did it etc.
Canada will for ever be a colony.
And as much as i despise USA nowdays, their founding fathers were some of the most brilliant men of their time.
Leave America
>We were legitimately oppressed.
you paid 1/26th the tax rate of a brit back in his homeland
>Can you imagine having to keep a British soldier in your home?
you mean you had your own personal loyal security guard for just the cost of a spare bed and food?
>We also inspired many other countries with our constitution, Declaration of Independence, and success of our revolution.
^You still didn't refute that. Our founding fathers were gods. Praise be upon them.
...
1.) We aren't a colony, we are a member of the Commonwealth of Nations and a dominion. We have no ties to the British Parliment, we simply share a monarch. Were Britian to end the monarchy tomorrow it would have no impact in Canada. Her Majesty is also Canadian, in fact Canadian citizenship is issued by the authority of the Crown
2.) I have no problems with the British ties that do exist. I prefer the old red ensign
3.) You are right that America's founding fathers were among the greatest collection of genius ever to live in one place at one time. Many of their works are jewels in western canon regarding political philosophy. Washington was a military genius and is grossly underrated. King George said that if Washington actually stepped down from tje presidency he would be "the greatest man in the world" This he did and this he arguably was
Fucking loyalists
>leaf
Big surprise
>Washington was a military genius and is grossly underrated
I've agreed with everything you've said so far ITT but what? Explain?
Fucking traitors
>We did it. The Irish did it and the Americans did it etc.

But we're better than all of you.
Citation Needed.
America wasn't the first democracy in the world, and they've never led the world in it either except for being the first modern republic, you rebelled from a nation with a constitution.
Did I say we were the first democracy in the world? Why are Japs so stupid?
>loyalists in Modern America
Literally terrorism
I meant OUR constitution. Not A constitution. I just can't get over how dumb Jap posters are.
>handed you a decent retort
>hands me ad hom

Care to share how your constitution influenced anyone outside the US then?
>free masons in Queens America

It is the basis for all other Presidential systems in the world, though the pride in that is a bit dubious 2bh.

This; "Taxation without Representation" was always just a jingle and not quite all of the nuance of the situation.
The only "Americans" are indians, you are English.
His siege at Dorchester Heights was a military feat on par with Alexandre at Tyre ir Hanibal in the Alps. A Brit engineer estimated it woukd have taken 15k men and a team if engineers. Washington did it in one night with a few hundred men and no engineers. Another Brit officer saud it was only possible with Aladdin's genie.
At his nation's weakest hour they desperately needed a victory to boost morale, he delivered a great one against the Hessians on Christmas Eve.
The French required of him a major American victory, despite the fact that he was waging a war of attrition, constantky raiding and retemreating, and doing so perfectly. Still he needed France and gave them a stunning victory, against odds, at Saratoga. He was also a brilliant leader of men and the perfect symbol of inspiration for them to rally to, even if it came at his own seclusion. He also maintained an amazing clandestine network of spies and intelligence agents.
The meme that he was a great leader but shitty general is unfounded. His taxtics look unconventional because he was fighting an unconventional war in every way.
And we encouraged other nations to become independent by showing it wasn't impossible.

Don't assume my race, neo-con.
The Americans are the terrorists in the Iraq War.
Terrorists or not, we won that war, and the 20th century was vastly different because of it.
The term was coined after the French revolution and the Terror that ensued.
I never considered myself a monarchist but the way our teachers taught us how that period was great when we were kids, I always felt there was something wrong with that, somehow.
I hate the fifth republic too, especially what it's become lately.
Literally nothing wrong with that though
democracy != liberty

I'm going to stop right there, because even in the top 10 countries that dislike us there is one that has more favorability than negative feelings.
