Question

What were two disadvantages the colonies faced in starting a war with England?

Answer 1

Lack of money and equipment

Answer 2

The correct answer is A) lack of money and equipment.

Two disadvantages that the colonies faced in starting a war with England were the lack of money and equipment.

Loyalists -the people that supported the British rule in the 13 colonies- though that these colonies had no chance to defeat the strong English Army. However, Patriots -the ones that supported the claim of independence from England- were decided to gain their liberty. That represented the beginning of the Revolutionary War in April 1775. Although the Continental Army led by George Washington had a lack of money and equipment, it ended up winning the war in September 1873.
