Reflection,Module 7: Revolution & Independence



Just when I thought the last module was long I was COMPLETELY wrong this one has done has done a number on me ! So, during this lesson I gained  information on how basically “America” came about and what it took to get up to where we are today. So let’s begin on what was the main cause of the Revolutionary War, the main cause of this war was INDEPENDENCE! That was the whole objective of this war. The people who had freed themselves from the British went to the New lands and gotten a taste of struggle and freedom with very little strings attached. Once this had started it was the beginning of the “Melting Pot” this is when people had gotten mixed up with the Natives and they were owning slaves and living in a so called diverse world to them. Also during the 17th century  when there was a king that when Parliaments and laws were enforced. This is were the idea of Bill of rights came from in 1628 and this is were the idea of some our written documents came from and since then it has been a continuous thing for the United States. Other scenarios played a part in this era too such as the Great awakening were it was a religious war going on within the colonies and also the Seven year war as well. I feel that all variables of this era are extremely important because it has developed how we are today so each part has played a tremendous  role within our history, but the most important part about the whole thing is the Revolutionary war. I believe this because what if we would’ve lost that war? Would things be the way they are now?Also I feel like the Natives and the Slaves played a major part within this history era simply because if it wasn’t for them the colonies wouldn’t have been here. And that is something that we should think about.  This module has taught me how we have developed as a country and what shaped and molded us as a whole we have had a lot of blood sweat and tears. And quite frankly we still have a lot of that going on today I learned about us breaking free from Britain and having some new alliances. It just information that has expanded my education on how America has really started. That is what this module has taught me!
