Question

What were strengths and weaknesses of the British and Continental armies at the start of the American Revolution?

Answer 1

Answer/Explanation:

The British main weakness was their predictable approach of march in groups making them easier to target. Also Britain had to travel over seas making it an expensive cost.

The British main strength is that the British had more troops, money, and weapons.

The Continental Army's main weakness is that the British had control over most of the land and had bribed many of the natives and indentured servants to serve on Britain's side. Not to mention Colonists had a lot to lose because northern states depended on trade with Britain.

The Continental Army's main strength was great leadership from General George Washington who refused to give up and motivated the team to victory.
