With the onset of the bitter winter cold, the Continental Army under General George Washington, still in the field, enters its winter camp at Valley Forge, 22 miles from British-occupied Philadelphia. Washington chose a site on the west bank of the Schuylkill River that could be effectively defended in the event of a British attack.
During 1777, Patriot forces under General Washington suffered major defeats against the British at the battles of Brandywine and Germantown; Philadelphia, the capital of the United States, fell into British hands. The particularly severe winter of 1777-1778 proved to be a great trial for the American army, and of the 11,000 soldiers stationed at Valley Forge, hundreds died from disease. However, the suffering troops were held together by loyalty to the Patriot cause and to General Washington, who stayed with his men. As the winter stretched on, Prussian military adviser Frederick von Steuben kept the soldiers busy with drills and training in modern military strategy.
When Washington’s army marched out of Valley Forge on June 19, 1778, the men were better disciplined and stronger in spirit than when they had entered. Nine days later, they won a victory against the British under Lord Cornwallis at the Battle of Monmouth in New Jersey.

James Oglethorpe has insisted on limiting the amount of land by settlers for several reasons.
When the English settlers came Georgia they found Yamacraw Indians inhabiting the place. The Yamacraw Indians were the inhabitants of the region before the arrival of settlers. Oglethorpe was well aware of the greediness of pioneers in the New World and the conflicts it followed, which resulted in destruction and deaths on both sides. To avoid conflicts and war with the Native Indians was one of the reasons to limit the amount of land. During Oglethorpe presence in Georgia, colonists maintained a favourable relation which helped them in conduction trade and to establish diplomatic connections without breaking the peace.
I’m pretty sure they fought and conquered neighboring tribes. They also had Tenochtitlan, the capital, in the middle of lake Texcoco, which provided protection. They then defeated more tribes and taxed the tribes until the Aztecs were flourishing where they were invaded by Hernan Cortez
