The colonists won the Revolutionary War for the following reasons:

  1. They understood the local geography. - The colonists had a better understanding of the land, which helped them in battles and strategic planning.

  2. France and Spain provided support. - Both France and Spain supplied crucial military and financial support to the colonists, which was instrumental in their victory.

While factors like supplies and experienced soldiers played a role, they were not as significant as the above two reasons in the context of the overall war effort. The reliance on Native Americans was also not a major factor in the success of the colonists in the Revolutionary War.
