<span>The United States primary contribution to the Allied war effort in the First World War was sending troops to France to fight the Germans. The US supplied most of the transport & merchant shipping to move the troops. The US also supplied escort ships for these convoys. The US also supplied food, ammunition, and other supplies to the Allies. Although the US Navy sent ships to operate with the British Royal Navy, there were very few that engaged in combat. There was very extensive ground combat for American Army & the few Marine troop sent to France. They used both American, British & French equipment. American pilots were trained in France to fly French-made aircraft (some British-made aircraft were also used). No American made aircraft were used in the war in Europe.</span>
At the outbreak of the Revolutionary crisis in the 1760s, Native Americans faced a familiar task of navigating among competing European imperial powers on the continent of North America. At the close of the era in the 1780s, Native Americans faced a "New World" with the creation of the new United States of America. During the years of conflict, Native American groups, like many other residents of North America, had to choose the loyalist or patriot cause—or somehow maintain a neutral stance. But the Native Americans had distinctive issues all their own in trying to hold on to their homelands as well as maintain access to trade and supplies as war engulfed their lands too. Some allied with the British, while others fought alongside the American colonists.
In this lesson, students will analyze maps, treaties, congressional records, firsthand accounts, and correspondence to determine the different roles assumed by Native Americans in the American Revolution and understand why the various groups formed the alliances they did.
