What effects did the Declaration of Independence have on the revolutionary war?

storchak [24]

The declaration was a laundry list of affronts to the colonies by King George III, wherein Jefferson et.al. argued that since the monarchy did not treat the colonists like other Britons, the colonists had the right to form their own sovereign nation. It was also intended to justify this action to other monarchies to prevent them from helping Britain retain the colonies under the doctrine of Intervention. So it helped to justify the war domestically and internationally.

how did great britain’s position in north america change relative to the other european powers during the first three-quarters o

ozzi

The English replaced France and Spain as the single-most influential political and economic power in North America during the first three quarters of the eighteenth century. During that time, the North American part of Spanish Empire covered an immense but sparsely populated and economically inactive territory. The colonies consisted of several small and isolated urban clusters, mostly under the control of Indian. The colonies' dependence on trade and extraction of Indian labor, and failure to attract settlers made the colony impoverish. Florida remained a stagnant military outpost, and others were dotted by a small number of mission outposts that attempted to convert Indian. French colonies, in contrast, was able to rival the British ones. It possessed a expanding colony in Canada and continued into Mississippi River Valley. Prosperous farming communities with a vibrant and established social life developed in colonies. Though populated, the colonies were still dwarfed by the British ones, due to the dominant prejudice against emigration. Yet the French still posed a threat to British in military and trading power. However, after the power struggle in the Seven Years' War, the British obtained Canada from French and Florida from Spain, and became the dominant power in North America.
