dont suppose there are any history buffs in here that could help me with any of these?

Pretend you are a solidly loyal to Britain during the revolution. What would be your main three arguments against independence?

Pretend you are solidly patriotic and in favor of the American colonies during the regolution. Besides "no taxation without representation," what would be your three main arguments for independence?

After reading the military history of the Revolution, do you feel it is fair to say that the British lost the revolutionary war or the americans won it?

How were new state governments different than the british governments that they broke away from?

Freedom of religion, abolish 'tyrannical' monarchy, chance to create ideal nation "City upon a hill" - John Winthrop etc.

Neither / both. King of England wrote in his diary on 4th July 1776 - "nothing important happened today".

Federalism/Devolution. Local control. Perceived greater/fairer/more frequent representation.

Now be grateful to our majesty Poncho, because _Ocean_Drive_ is the secret account of Prince Harry.

History has been a very important requirement among the members of the royal family ever since.

independence

freedom to practice the ways of the country before unwanted british occupation

a right to have a king or queen instated if wanted and not made to listen to an unwanted one.
