History

Prior to the Revolutionary War, the US experienced a colonial form of government, which differs from a Republic in several significant ways:

  • A colony is ruled by a foreign power. In the case of the US, this power was England. A republic, on the other hand, is autonomous, and it forms its own government.
  • A colony is usually ruled by a monarch (it is not a necessary requirement, but it has been so in practice), while republics elect their leader through voting.  
  • Republics tend to be democratic and participatory, with no inherited power positions.
  • A republic has the power to make its own laws in terms of taxation, rights and duties, education, healthcare, etc. while the colony has to follow those of the mother country.
  • Republics tend to have their own constitution.

faust18 [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Due to limited authority, Congress could only ask the states for the tax, it couldn't collect directly.  There were two ways to collect money either borrow money from other governments or sell the western lands. Because of lack of funds, Congress couldn't build an efficient army and failed in regulating trade.

The Confederation depending on the willing struggles of the states to give tax funds to the federal administration. There was no supremacy of courts. It is constitution which later on, give authority to federal government and authorized courts to work.

ziro4ka [17]
The Patriot victory at Saratoga is often seen as the turning point in the war. Not only did it renew the morale of the American public, but it convinced potential foreign partners, such as France, that American could win the war, and that it might be in their best interests to send aid.

Hunter-Best [27]

The result of the attack on for the Fort Wagner by the 54th Massachusetts regiment <em>showed that African Americans had the courage to fight.</em>They were the first major American military units that were made up of black soldiers.

Muskets and cannons blazed through a veil of smoke and blowing sand.Hand grenades showered down as the 54th charged. As artillery shredded the regiment, Shaw shouted, “Onward, boys!” The Union force climbed the earthen ramparts, and fierce hand-to-hand fighting ensued.As soon as Shaw reached the crest of the parapet, though, he was struck by bullets and mortally wounded.
