Tags:

While this movement does share some revolutionary characteristics, such as seeking to overthrow a government and the establishment of a new type of government, the movement was ultimately led by class elites who sought to maintain the same social and economic order. Therefore, the revolt that founded the United States of America fails to pass muster as being a true revolution due to a continuation of class elite domination of both the systems of government before and after the revolution.

In July 1776, the thirteen colonies had declared independence out of desperation and joined together in a loosely knit confederation of states. Only as a result of collective hardships experienced during eight years of terrible fighting did the inhabitants cease to see themselves only as military allies and begin to accept one another as fellow citizens.
