Question

Independence from British rule and creation of a new nation? What revolution

Answer 1

The event you're referring to is the American Revolution, which took place between 1775 and 1783. The American colonies sought independence from British rule, culminating in the Declaration of Independence in 1776. This revolution led to the establishment of the United States of America as a new nation. The war involved significant battles, political maneuvering, and alliances, particularly with France, and ultimately resulted in the British defeat and recognition of American independence in the Treaty of Paris in 1783.
