The American Revolution, which took place between 1765 and 1783, saw the American Revolutionary War (1775-1783) and the establishment of the independence of the United States of America from the control and government of the British Crown. Although in the end, the result was the accomplishment of freedom and independence from British control, in the beginning there were several factors that could have prevented this from being the end result. One of the most serious of these factors, then was that at first the American colonies did not envision themselves apart from England; they did not wish to break ties with the motherland. The only thing they wanted was to demand that the British King, George, give the colonies better treatment. Very few men within the revolutionary movement saw any possibility of breaking away completely from England. Because of this fact alone, and some others, it was really difficult for the Revolutionary movement to be successful. Aside from the opposition by the majority of Americans, the leaders of the movement faced other disadvantages. Among the many, two very important ones were: A: a lack of money and equipment, necessary. This is evidenced in several of the battles, in which revolutionary soldiers died because of the inclement climate and lack of proper apparel, than the bullets from English soldiers. The second was C: lack of organization. This can be seen as the main revolutionary army was really small, but there were many militia armies that were formed around it and that sometimes complicated the correct functioning of the main army. Also, many people wished to help, but there was difficulty in centralizing the aid so that it could help the cause. In the end, aside from perseverance, what saved the American Revolution was the aid received from France and the fact that England saw its forces devided between the war with the colonies and the war with France in Europe.
