In 1776 the US population was 2.5 million, but 450,000 of those were slaves, so nothing changed for them. So, the revolutionary war increased freedom for about 2 million Americans. In 1865, there were 4 million slaves that won their freedom. So, the civil war freed about twice as many Americans as the revolutionary war. Plus, the freedom gained by black slaves in the civil war was a much bigger leap than the freedom gained by white Americans in the revolutionary war. …yeah … Atlanta is such a wonderful place now It probably is to the slaves decendents compared to what their ancestors had to deal with. Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

If I had to pick just one, I'd say the Revolutionary war, as without it, we'd have never had a constitution to be desecrated by the civil war. And we'd have certainly never been a world power to fight in and help win all the subsequent wars. Last edited by yotetrapper30; 02/01/25 12:44 AM. Reason: spelling Proudly banned from the NTA.

And we'd have certainly never been a world power to fight in and help win all the subsequent wars. Obviousing the Revolutionary War changed the world. We'd probably be just now coming into the internet age...of dialup had that war not happened when it did. But if we want to talk about importance as far has geopolitical consequences of the aftermath. It has to be as I said before, WW1. The breakup of the Ottoman Empire and the resulting Sykes-Picot agreement destabilized the muslim region and continues to do so. It put germany in the poorhouse which set the stage for Hitler's rise. Wilson was able to setup the League of Nations which was the forerunner of the UN http://www.sniperstrappingplace.com/tmansearch.php
