You really ought to at least mention the tribes' actual names, even if you're primarily using the settler terms for them. It's the Hodnashone, not the Iroquois, the Onodowaga, not the Seneca.

The Battle of Monmouth Courthouse was one of the few times the reserved, mild mannered Washington tore Charles Lee a new one. Lee had abandoned his position and upon seeing this Washington lost it. Onlookers said his cursing was shaking the trees. Lee was court martialed after the incident.

Fun Fact: Charles Lee was captured in 1776 by the British just before the Battle of Trenton. And while he was with them he was treated with friendliness n curtesy. Lee often ate with British Officers and would give them advice on how best to defeat the Patriot Forces. Something Washington wasn't aware of as he worked very hard to get Lee back.

Another note on Spain in the Revolutionary War, Spanish forces assisted the Americans in Upper Louisiana under governor Fernando de Leyba, who provided assistance to the Clark Expedition in Illinois and fought indigenous forces allied with the British at the battle of St. Louis, helping to keep the Mississippi supply route active and deny Britain’s First Nation allies the chance to strike at the American frontier in Kentucky (more than they already had).

@derekv Spain did much much more than that! Spain through the Gardoqui family sent the very first foreign weapons for the American Revolution in February 1775 to Marblehead Massachusetts! 300 Spanish rifles or muskets and 600 Spanish pistols to start things off! The British that came at Concord and Lexington came to disarm the Patriot militia, most likely knew of the Spanish weapons and came to retrieve them!

I expected to see mention of Bernando Galvez' expeditions in the South. I didn't learn till recently that Tejanos also fought in the campaigns, and it's believed that's why American Revolutionaries helped in the first Texas Revolution.

Yes, both countries aided the rebel colonies. But usually the help of Spain its not often remembered, mentioned or even known. Everyone seems to remember Lafayette, but curiously enough forgets about Bernardo Galvez and how he and the Spanish army at his orders won the English army commanded by John Campbell in the Battle of Pensacola. The help of Spain does not limit to the intervention in one or two clashes. Spain borrow lots of money and deliver war material to the rebels, allowed the rebel ships to dock their ships in their ports. A century later, USA thanked the help received by declaring war on Spain and snatching Cuba, Puerto Rico, The Philippines, and Guam. In 2014, Galvez was declared by the US Congress as “hero of the revolutionary war who risked his life of the United States people, and provided supplies, intelligence, and strong military support to the war effort”.

@LuisBrito-ly1ko

The reason is that Lafayette was with them while the Spanish fought on their own. Also, Spain entered the war on the request of France and to get back at Britain, not out of solidarity. It was not a formal ally of the US and distrusted republicanism. And after this, it’s not like there was full friendship. John Jay, the first U.S. ambassador to Spain, was not formally received at court and Spain also used the natives to block U.S. expansion. At some point Spain even blocked the Mississippi to the U.S and it had pursued claims on Georgia and West Florida. It wasn’t all negative of course, but it wasn’t rosy either. Spain had antagonized the US long before the Spanish-American War, so there was no “betrayal”. US and Spain relations were that of love and hate up until Spain joined NATO more or less.

Fantastic video, thanks!

Amazing video as always. My only gripe is that in the Treaty of Fort Stanwix (1768) the only native nation that was a party was the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, and the land they ceded was largely not controlled by them at the end of the Beaver Wars. That is why the Shawnee rejected the treaty. It would be like Japan in WWII selling Burma to another power just because it was briefly conquered. I think this is important because in the video it seemed that the Shawnee were simply not honoring the treaty, instead of the actual truth which is that the Haudenosaunee were never authorized to cede the land

@TheReaperEagle

Ай бұрын

The writer here: Stanwix is a fascinatingly controversial treaty. The bottom line was that it cleared the way for legal European settlers in modern West Virginia and western Kentucky, but the circumstances around the negotiation are murky, convoluted, and controversial. The British thought they were buying all the Haudenosaunee claims, only to find out during the negotiations that they weren't. The Six Nations intended to keep using all the territory they'd conquered down to the Tennessee River as a hunting reserve as they had for decades. They just wouldn't settle there or contest Virginian settlers moving in. It also isn't clear if the British knew that the Shawnee, Lenape, and many other small tribes had never given up their claims on the area (and in some cases still lived in the region). You can argue that they should have known, but the Six Nations were representing that they'd conquered and controlled the region to the exclusion of other tribes, so they didn't need to listen to the other tribes. This would have been prohibitively difficult for the British to investigate, so it was one tribes' word vs the others. It highlights the really difficult problem of figuring out which actually held what land and had the rights to it as America expanded.

Although the American revolution is portrayed as a war of the meek against the mighty, One must never forget that besides British taxation, the other primary motivating factor behind the American rebellion was slavery, that is the British Empire's gradual move towards abolition even though they were still one of the biggest slave colonizers of that time. This gradual move towards abolition by the british crown "Pre-declaration of independence" Is believed to be the main precipitor towards the American Declaration of Independence, not just taxation, and was motivated by two key British decisions: 1. The 1772 Mansfield decision rendered by Lord Mansfield Which held that a person cannot be held as a slave in England, even though he may have been previously enslaved elsewhere in the British Empire, and 2 Lord Dunmore's proclamation of 1775, The Royal governor Virginia, who in no uncertain terms,stated that any black person in the American colonies who rose up against their masters and went over to the side of the British would be granted their freedom. It was these two decisions that caused as much uproar in the american colony as taxation and prompted them to declare their independence in 1776, even referring to Lord Dunmore's 1775 proclamation In the "Declaration of Independence" as having caused an insurrection amongst them. Needless to say that thousands of African Americans headed Lord Dunmore's proclamation and fought alongside the british for their own freedom. It is also interesting to note that over 300 blacks fought on the side of the Americans at Minmouth, but none of this is mentioned.. Perhaps the most interesting of these unmentioned facts is that a runaway slave from Shrewsbury., a man who would later became known by the name of Colonel Tye, would fight alongside the British at the battle of Monmouth, and so formidable.was his fighting force that his men (Known as the ethiopian regiment or "black brigade") would eventually strike more fear into the heart of the American colonists than the British army itself. Colonel Tye went on to participate in several battles and skirmishes in New jersey Including Monmouth and Hunterdon where he captured several high-ranking members of the American militia. He and his men went on to conduct several successful raids and skirmishes in jersey, looting plantations and freeing slaves along with their livestock. He eventually succumbed to gangrene after suffering a gunshot in the leg during a raid on a Patriot's home in Tom's River. This is all needless to say that slavery had a more promirole in the American revolution than mere taxes. Look at the fact that General Washington, one of the most prominent figures of the revolution, was one of the biggest slaveholders in the 13 colonies along with Thomas Jefferson. Needless to say that if america's war of independence was really about freedom, Then once Lord Dunmore, Royal governor Virginia, issued his proclamation in 1775 declaring all blacks free who fought along the British, the Americans could have easily countered in 1776 by stating the same in the Declaration of Independence.Although the American revolution is portrayed as a war of the meek against the mighty, One must never forget that besides British taxation, the other primary motivating factor behind the American rebellion was slavery, that is the British Empire's gradual move towards abolition even though they were still one of the biggest slave colonizers of that time.

Usually when England Invaded Via Normandy/Flanders etc it would be hard to spot a French Soldier from Southern France because they were so independent. Gascony Troops made up a large portion of the English army because without them the English would have been severely outnumbered. Even Henry the V's army was considered large for its time because its not even the issue of finding manpower, its the issue of supplying such a large force in hostile territory.

Meanwhile France raised 30k men like it was nothing from only the Northern territories and also had Tens of Thousands of men along its massive borders with Spanish nations, Italian States and German lords.

Excellent video, as always, but I have a nit to pick. Monmouth cannot have "silenced Washinton's critics" because 2 years later the Congress would appoint Horatio Gates as commander in the South without Washington's approval (or knowledge?) In fact, I think Lee only became a "Washington critic" *after* Monmouth when he tried to blame his failures on Washington. What really "silenced Washington's critics" was the battle of Camden (which I bet you'll cover next!!!!) when Gates --"The Hero of Saratoga" -- fled the field and abandoned his army to destruction. Washington didn't look so bad after that. He may have lost a lot of battles but he never actually ran away and always kept his army intact. But, it's a nit. I really enjoyed the video.

Great episode, as always. I must point out, however, that your map of New Jersey shown during most of the episode leaves much to be desired. For one thing, you place Philadelphia on the wrong side of the Delaware River, in New Jersey, not Pennsylvania on the west bank of the river. You also shorten the river, which runs the entire length of New Jersey and forms it’s western border, dividing it from Pennsylvania, a major obstacle to the movement of British troops. I do not understand why the British would have to march south and embark from Southern New Jersey to reach New York, when Philadelphia was the largest port in the colonies at the time and no major port existed in Southern New Jersey, except a fishing village at Salem, where you picture the British ships. Minor quibbles, I know, but you might want to double-check that.

Also the fact that after one or two generations of settling, in North Amercia ango-saxons settlers had lost their national attachment to Britain, and didn't feel anymore as part of this nation.

Meanwhile, the english royal court spoke in french, the whole english nobility had french as its native language, and a significant share of english lands was owned by french lords. "colony" here is indeed not much appropriated, but the virulence with which sometimes englishmen spit on France, let it guess there is an inferiority complex. I noticed that in the british politic life, the british seem to be far more obsessed with the french than the french ever think of the british.

A lot of people are quick to say something along these lines: “A ragtag army made up of farmers was able to beat the greatest military in the world.” Something like this has been said so many times. That the Americans were able to use superior leadership, George Washington, guerrilla tactics and strategy to beat the better supplied British troops who just walked into the open without strategy and got mowed down by rifle fire from the trees in the distance. There is so much wrong with this. The Americans did not win the war. At least not the way many people think. They did not constantly outfight the British using better strategy and guerrilla warfare. All of the major American victories were fought in the conventional style of battle at that time. Yorktown, Cowpens, Trenton, and more. King’s Mountain and parts of Saratoga are some of the few arguably won by guerrilla manners. Next is that the British were not the greatest military in the world. They had the greatest navy. Their navy had won many victories in wars throughout the century. The British Army was formidable. But it wasn’t the best. It was in the top 10-5 best armies, but the best actual army was likely the French or the Prussians. The British army was on the winning side of many wars. The Seven Years War comes to mind. However, it was won with a lot of strategy on William Pitt’s part, naval superiority as well as expansion into other countries, such as in India. So the Americans were not fighting the best. A lot of American successes were inflated. Trenton was a small victory. They captured a town along with many Hessians, but overall, not the most decisive. It was the morale booster that made it seem great. Saratoga was a decisive victory, but keep in mind that the British had walked into a largely pointless campaign. Burgoyne had intended to push through American forces from the north and rendezvous with Howe’s army and another eastward bound force. General Howe abandoned this and attacked Philadelphia instead and the Western army was slowed by a series of battles. The British were now on a near pointless campaign and were already exhausted from previous battles. Of course, America never could have won without international aid, which they received from France, Spain and the Netherlands. Each side supplied the Americans, the French and Spanish sending soldiers and ships to fight the British. Britain and their Hessian allies ended up fighting against the Americans, Spanish and French. Fighting on so many fronts proved a challenge, which meant that since the British were defended so much against multiple enemies, they could never entirely devote to fighting in the colonies, yet another advantage handed to the Americans that is often overlooked. The British could not focus as much on them as they wanted to. Yet still, the Americans and their allies struggled against the British. A notable battle is Gibraltar, the largest of the war, depending on how you count. The siege of Gibraltar was a three year siege laid to the British-controlled city by the French and Spanish, yet still the British won. Even against so many foes, the British won decisive victories. Siege of Savannah (the British capture and defend the city against the Americans and French.) Battle of Camden (an outnumbered British force destroys an American force under Horatio Gates.) Battle of the Saintes (even though not important overall being after Yorktown, still worth noting seeing how heavily the French Navy was beaten, Admiral De Grasse being captured.) The war has been taught the wrong way. The American victories were won in conventional-style warfare. Guerrilla warfare is never enough to win a war alone. It was a behind the scenes success that largely was only effective on the frontier. In fact, the British were more experienced and arguably more skilled in guerrilla style warfare, as were many of their Native American allies. The British readily used Light Infantry. These were the fastest and smartest men that usually fought on the left flanks. They would fight in groups of two usually, with lots of space in between those groups. They were trained to take advantage of cover, hiding places etc. to battle their opponents, and helped in many major British victories. If I remember correctly, the rest of the British army in America attempted to adopt more Light Infantry tactics, pretty much dispelling the idea that the Brits were rigid fighters that sucked at guerrilla. But the Americans were not overly better than the British. British leadership was inconsistent. The generals were able to win many battles but failed to completely destroy the Americans. But they were able to constantly outmaneuver them. In fact, George Washington lost more battles than he won. It was his ability to keep the Americans alive that helped them win. It was also thanks to Nathaniel Greene outlasting the British in the south. The British generals were successful in the short term ideals. Such as William Howe, who defeated the Americans in New York and in Philadelphia, but failed to completely destroy the rebels, even when he had the chance to at Long Island. The Americans constantly lost in the short run, but their ability to live to fight another day kept them holding out until the French and Spanish became involved. After this, people like Baron Von Steuben trained and drilled American troops into a more professional fighting force. Then you have the fact that British troops were being sent to fight a war 3,000 miles away, meaning that British morale was likely pretty low. I would also like to mention the deciding battles before Yorktown, namely the Southern campaign. With the fight reaching a stalemate in 1778, the British struck south, capturing Savannah, shifting the theater. They held Savannah and beat the Americans at Camden and Charlestown, which were terrible losses for the revolution. The thing is, despite all this success, this caused the Americans to shift tactics. Nathaniel Green became general of American forces in the south. He focused on outstretching the British, forcing them into a wild goose chase and weakening their supply lines. This split up the British, and led to General Morgan beating Tarleton Banastre at the Battle of Cowpens. Guilford Courthouse, however, despite being a British victory, cost their already small force high casualties. This put Cornwallis in a bad position. So he retreated to Yorktown to await aid from Henry Clinton. This help did not come, and led to the Americans and the French trapping them in the siege of Yorktown. Francis Marion was a large help in the south as well, harrassing British supply lines and more with his guerrilla tactics (I did say guerrilla tactics are overstated, but while they can’t win a war, they can help support and effort in a certain theater). Lastly is Pensacola. Galvez and his Spanish forces captured Pensacola, threatening British Jamaica and sugar colonies, and forcing their navy to take up defensive positions, keeping a British fleet that could have likely stopped the French navy at the Chesapeake Bay from attacking. So, overall the deciding factors were: The British won short term victories, but the Americans lived to fight another day. French and Spanish aid gave the Americans the firepower they needed to fight. The British were not entirely committed to any single front entirely due to the peripheral war with France and Spain, meaning that America’s allies were largely successful in this theater. Francis Marion’s and Nathaniel Greene’s effect on the southern theater of the war led to British forces retreating to Yorktown. The British weren’t entirely devoted to the war in the colonies due to the fighting with France and Spain on the peripheral theater. The war was won by help from France and Spain. It really was just outlasting the British. Because the British could have kept fighting after Yorktown. They showed this with the Battle of the Saintes. They had the capability to try and capture or recapture major cities and hold off America’s allies, but they realized that it wasn’t worth it, abandoning the effort similar to what happened in the Vietnam war. So can we truly consider it an American victory? Not really. It was just the French and Spanish gaining the upper hand for the Americans. The American Revolution was complicated, but is often oversimplified by biased textbooks, authors and teachers. The winners write the history books, so don’t trust everything your friendly neighborhood textbook says. Peace!

@@apollyontw7863 The British had sent a massive force to Yorktown, Virginia to finish off the rebels once and for all. 7,000 British regulars and about 2,000 Hessian mercenaries, the best troops on the planet. They had good intelligence that George Washington was in the area with his entire army. Once Washington’s army was destroyed and Washington himself was captured, this revolution nonsense would be over once and for all. What Lord Cornwallis didn’t know was that: IT'S A TRAP As soon as Cornwallis landed his troops on the narrow Virginia peninsula, a massive French fleet of 29 Warships came out of no-where trapping him and his men on the peninsula. Washington and his army were there alright, with nearly 8,000 men and supply lines stretching back to the rest of the colony. He settled on a siege to bottle up the British on the tip of the peninsula to watch them starve to death as no supplies could be sent to the beleaguered British troops. After three weeks in this hopeless situation, losing about 10 troops a day and another 30 wounded, and inflicting only minimal losses on the Americans, The entire British and Hessian forces surrendered. America still had an army of 8,000 fighting men that had been running from the British for six years at this point which only turned and fought when it was in their advantage to do so. The war had been incredibly expensive for the British. Hessian mercenaries didn’t come cheap and shipping troops and supplies across an ocean wasn’t a walk in the park either. With the surrender in October the British couldn’t possibly put a force together until the following spring, and no-one was willing to put up the money to gather another 10,000 troops, supplies and ships only to either spend a year chasing Washington up and down the east coast, or losing the entire army within a month. After Yorktown, the Americans knew, the British knew, and pretty much everyone on the planet knew that after six years of fighting that the Americans had spent either dodging the British or beating them handily that it would cost the British a king’s ransom even to keep the war going. As such, it was time to negotiate to keep what they could. Quebec and the Maritime provinces were still loyal, the territory of the Hudson’s Bay Company was secure, and they really didn’t give a darn about the Native Americans. The last thing the British wanted was for the war to spread northwards (which it did in 1812, but that’s another story). The American colonies were more trouble than they were worth and they were still making good money in Canada (furs, trees and fish). Negotiations started in Paris the following April with the Americans sending their most famous man, Benjamin Franklin, to lead the delegation (which also included John Jay and John Adams). They spent the next six months discussing terms before getting a draft together in November. However, Britain also had disputes with Spain, France and the Netherlands that had to be settled as well, so the treaty wasn’t signed until the following September, at which point it was sent to both governments to ratify it On April 9, 1784, two years after negotiations started, the matter reached Parliament. Despite widespread opposition to the treaty, it passed by division (by a single vote, but only because they stopped counting the “ayes” once they won) and became effective the following month.

@@soumyadiptamajumder8795 I don't believe I ever used the term "drive the British out" although I'm not sure what you would call losing two Armies and eventually giving up most(not all) of your colonies in North America after an eight year long war..but I digress. I respectfully disagree with you on a few points. " Washington was not a particularly good general. Brave yes, skilled .. no. He lost far more battles than he won." The short answer is you're right.. he was not a very good general...but he was a good leader of men..I will give you an example The New York campaign was a disaster for the Continental Army. Washington's army was nearly destroyed in the opening battle and he lost every single engagement of the campaign and was forced to give up New York and New Jersey..at this point his army's enlistments were about to run out and desertion and death had whittled away at his numbers from around 23,000 at the beginning of the campaign to just around 2,000..But...with those few thousand remaining men that he was able to talk into staying and fighting on he was able to score victories at both Trenton and Princeton and outmaneuvering Cornwallis in New Jersey .(neither battle being especially huge for the time period) but the psychological effect it had on his men kept the revolution going..that's what a good leader is capable of...had the Continental Army disbanded after New York the rebellion would have ended in 1776 the same year it began "> Had it not been for the French who were at constant war with the British around the world for dominance, the War of Independence would certainly have been lost to the British." This is one I hear a lot..So a couple of things here..The French had been at peace with the British since 1763 at the close of the Seven Years War and having lost most of their North American empire(and while they always looked forward for a way to humiliate them when they could) were not in a hurry to get back into a military conflict with them, and as I stated in the previous example their were several times the American Revolution could have(and probably should have) been a failure for the colonies and a triumph for the British government between the years 1776-1778..(before the French allied themselves to the American cause)...but British military blunders and timely American victories are what bought us that alliance...it was earned not freely given "> In the end it was really the British Parliament who just got bored with the whole war in the colonies. And so after the defeat at Yorktown at the hands of the combined French / American forces, Cornwallis and his army literally just packed up and left." I have to admit I chuckled a little bit reading that..if by "bored "you mean that the government who was already in debt up to its ears before the war was now in financial panic after eight years of conflict with no end in sight and also losing two armies one under Burgoyne at Saratoga and one under Cornwallis at Yorktown(which at that point in history was almost unheard of for the early British empire)as well as being in a war with two colonial rivals (France and Spain)..then yes they were very "bored"....And that's probably why Lord Norths government was forced out of office under a vote of no confidence (only the second time that had ever happened at that point) because of the conduct of the American war ..because they were "bored" I have actually really enjoyed this..thank you so much

I came here to chime in as well. As someone growing up and still here, it's was extremely odd to see Philadelphia in New Jersey 😂😵‍💫 though that could've been fixed if Philadelphia was labeled on the opposite side of the Delaware River (DR) and Camden labeled where they put Philadelphia, instead. The Schuylkill river connects with the DR at southern Philadelphia but it is not shown on the map which runs southwest from Schuylkill Haven, PA area. You're correct that the DR does run further north, all the way to Hancock, NY where it branches east and west there. It may be helpful if they were to label the Susquehanna River to help alleviate some confusion. But most likely they may have enough of a resolution, per se, for not showing the full length of the DR for the aerial view compared to ground movement which may better paint a picture. So for it to "terminate" just south of Trenton, not shown, is a bit fair on their end.

So that being said if this map were truly accurate that river should be a thin line and the Delaware should be thick
