The American War of Independence is also called the American Revolutionary War. The British exploitation of the colonies seriously hindered the economic development of the American colonies. In order to resist Britain, the people of North America rose up.

The American War of Independence was the first large-scale colonial war for national independence in the history of the world. The American War of Independence began with the Lexington artillery fire in 1775, and the war lasted for eight years. 1782, 165438+ 10, the British government reached an armistice agreement with the United States. The two sides signed the Paris Peace Treaty in Paris, and Britain was forced to recognize American independence.

The victory of the War of Independence ended the British colonial rule over the United States and achieved national independence. At the same time, the American War of Independence is also a typical war case in history. This victory paved the way for the later French Revolution and the independence of Latin American national liberation movement.

The Declaration of Independence, the 1787 Constitution, and the new political system and separation of powers established by them are valuable legacies of human civilization. The United States is also the first federal presidential country in the world, which abolished the colonial eldest son inheritance law and service tax. Thus liberating the labor force and opening up a broad road for the development of the American economy.

However, the American War of Independence did not solve the problem of land or slavery completely, which led to two different ways of development between the north and the south of the United States after independence, and finally led to the outbreak of the American Civil War.
