On 26 October 1775, King George the Third of Great Britain went before parliament to officially announce that the thirteen American colonies were in rebellion against the British. He was also able to authorize a military response to halt the American rebellion. This was followed up by the British sending armies to invade the colonies and using the British naval forces to blockade the coast.

George Washington became the American commander of the war. Working with the continental congress, he was able to gather men for armies, raise morale, and neutralize the influence of Loyalists to the British. During this time, Benjamin Franklin departed from American on 26 October 1776 to visit France and request their support for the ongoing American Revolution. French involvement allowed America to compete with the British’s navy.

It is significant to note that the American Revolution came about from the Enlightenment, a series of political, social, and intellectual transformations in government and society during the eighteen century. Without these new ideals and perspectives, the American colonies may never have gained independence from their British rulers. It is strange to think what kind of world we could be living in without a democratically elected government and our undeniable human rights.
