美國(guó)獨(dú)立戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)的意義

The meaning of the American Independence WarThe war of American independence could be described as a civil war within the Thirteen Colonies which then transformed to a major war between European powers, Great Britain, Spanish, and German. During the war the Americans benefited greatly from international assistance and finally realized its independence as the United States. After the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, it was a war between two different nations, America and Great Britain, as the Revolutionaries legitimately controlled the governments of all the thirteen colonies. In a world, the war changed the pattern of world. Moreover, the American Independence War was the first case in which colonies successfully won its independence through fighting, thus it set an example for the liberation of colonies all over the world. Also, its a bourgeois War which overthrew the rule of Great Britain and liberated the productive forces. Just as Lenin said, the modern civilization of American history began from a great war which brought true liberation, and true revolutionary. This combination of factors led ultimately to the downfall of British rule in America and the rise of the revolutionaries own independent nation, the United States of America. I believe that was the biggest meaning of the American Independence War. (204 words)
