Understood. Okay, so let's do this. What are the 3 most important events during The Revolutionary War?

NeverAlone · Answer

That'll give you some choices.

Sock · Answer

Ok so could one of them be because of the taxes, since it was one of the things that caused the war?

Sock · Answer

or would that not work in this situation

NeverAlone · Answer

Good. The Revolutionary War was so that the colonists could gain independence right? (I might have the wrong war) and one of the biggest reasons the war started was taxes. We also however have to think about the Boston Tea Party. From what I remember, that's what really started the war.

NeverAlone · Answer

The colonists pushed the king over the edge and he started to attack

Sock · Answer

Yeah one of the main quotes was "No taxation without representation"

NeverAlone · Answer

Yes! Right! Alright, now the question asks what OUTCOMES were most important. What was the main thing to be achieved from the war?

because they were being taxed unfairly?

NeverAlone · Answer

Yep. The colonists decided that was enough and wanted to gain independence from Great Britain. They made a new country with fair taxes. They got what they wanted. :]
