Question

Britain’s forces had all of these advantages going into the American Revolutionary war EXCEPT A) more military experience. B) more manufacturing centers. C) the greatest navy in the world. D) greater commitment to the cause.

Answer 1

D is the correct answer.

The British Army was the far superior force. The British Navy was the far superior force. Britain was also a manufacturing powerhouse.

But the British Army was fighting to preserve something while the Revolutionaries were fighting for their rights and to start something new.

This question is delightfully biased but it is true that the Americans, by and large, were more committed to the fight.
