Answer: Epic poems
Explanation: An epic poem or narrative poem that usually describes deeds of some of the heroes, such as Gilgamesh or Beowulf. It is certainly about the heroic acts of such heroes, their extraordinary abilities, their courage. The grandiose style of describing them, their lives, their plot, etc., was used to better understand the exceptional nature of these heroes. These are semi-mythical or completely mythical characters on the basis of which some of the universal moral traits are built. Of course, they can be kings, but other types of heroes, who as such were role models to the whole nation, to a group of people, etc.
one example is the many colonies they had for gold and other natural resources.
Answer: Colonial troops/army . or Bluecoats
Explanation: To be honest many patriots had tried to give a name to the army, but no name stuck. I would just say colonial troops or army. George Washington had tried to enlist the name Bluecoats but the name didn't stick but it's worth mentioning because it stuck for the longest.
