Explanation:

  • After the heavy defeats and losses of New York, George Washington's Continental Army was on the run from the British. In order to preserve the army and continue the rebellion against the British, Washington decided to take a risky venture. Specifically, in the winter of 1776 he crossed with the army the frozen Delaware River from New Jersey.
  • Although Washington saved the army, it had to restore morale to the army and decided to attack Trenton. In December, or rather December 25, 1776, US soldiers unexpectedly attacked careless German mercenaries. After Trenton, Washington rushed to Princeton where he destroyed the garrison, and then sought winter refuge in the mountains.
  • The next battle that was a turning point for the British was the battle of Saratoga. The British, led by General Burgoyne, tried to break into Canada across the Hudson Valley all the way to New York, but were stopped by the Americans.
  • Washington brought the final victory in 1781 with the successful siege of Yorktown. French involvement in the war brings new problems to England on the American mainland and weakens the British influence.

Is global history the same as world history and I need explanation​
denis23 [38]

Answer:

World history, global history or transnational history is a field of historical study that emerged as a distinct academic field in the 1980s. It examines history from a global perspective. World History looks for common patterns that emerge across all cultures.Based on these definitions, the process of globalization largely differentiates global and world history. World history encompasses a history that is not necessarily completely interconnected through globalization, while global history examines this specific history of interconnectivity.
