The 13 colonies of America issued a Declaration of Independence and passed a Constitution that were constructed around many ideals of the Enlightenment, incorporating the ideas of personal liberty, right to life, pursuit of happinness as natural rights of men. The best fruit of the Revolutionary War is the birth of the United States, a successful democratic republic.
