Oh independence. Even though your document was signed, you were a lie!
There was a whole 5-6 years of fighting even after!
The British obviously didn't respect the 'we're independent, we have a document to prove it,
so back off!' thing. Silly Brits!
So anyway, the history class today was spent exploring the already explored southern campaigne!
Yay repetition!
I enjoyed the class, hyper with sugar in my body, i felt like i achieved some sort of self-satisfaction.
P.s. Mr boyle, if you read this one, DO ANOTHER CIRCLE.
Hali like circles!
Anywho, the war 'ended' with the Siege of Yorktown.
And for homework, which is of course more documents which kills more trees,
is about the end of the war in 1783, the treaty of paris.
Fun fun stuff!
I think the British probably didnt respect the document because they didn't agree to it. But if the Americans were just going to write a document stating their independence without consulting the British, why wouldnt they do it earlier and avoid the fighting. I dont understand that really, but it's okay because we already had the test, and it didn't come up.
