Who Won the American Revolution?: Crash Course US History #7
Vložit
- čas přidán 3. 06. 2024
- In which John Green teaches you about the American Revolution. And the Revolutionary War. I know we've labored the point here, but they weren't the same thing. In any case, John will teach you about the major battles of the war, and discuss the strategies on both sides. Everyone is familiar with how this war played out for the Founding Fathers; they got to become the Founding Fathers. But what did the revolution mean to the common people in the United States? For white, property-owning males, it was pretty sweet. They gained rights that were a definite step up from being British Colonial citizens. For everyone else, the short-term gains were not clear. Women's rights were unaffected, and slaves remained in slavery. As for poor white folks, they remained poor and disenfranchised. The reality is it took a long time for this whole democracy thing to get underway, and the principles of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness weren't immediately available to all these newly minted Americans.

try khan academy
I hope they see this...... I need it....
I thought they would have mathematics :(

Margarita Schuyler How did we know that this plan would work? We had a spy on the inside- that’s right, HERCULES MULLIGAN!!
John was so happy that he won the mystery document challenge that I had to watch it multiple time. Victory is yours John Green, victory is yours.
Wait so this is the guy who wrote The Fault in Our Stars?
Yup!
I know, I had to take a second look before i realized it
Stick to CZcams John...
Sarah Buck you look pretty
Yep! Man is a jack of many trades.
Will have written at the point this takes place.
Best thing ever is when your teacher tells you to watch crash course instead of reading books or some other things.
The last British soldier to leave American soil, lowered the Union Jack on Staten Island, cut the halyard rope and greased the flag pole so that the Americans couldn't raise or climb the pole to put up their own flag.
Bulsh1tMan Tell me where that is because I live on Staten Island
*cough*bullshit*cough*
+Bulsh1tMan We had ladders.
Wutzthedeal Actually, in the end, they nailed in pegs on the pole as steps and had a guy wear some spiked lumberjack shoes to get their flag up.
+Bulsh1tMan even if this isn't true this would be a wonderful troll to pull on another country if we ever are ejected
I thought the British were trying to take away our propane and propane accessories.
Not even King George was that mad.
Hank please pass the message to the good people of Boston we want our tea back
LOL I love king of the hill
The americans were British, they just had different ideologies.
2:41 In all honesty, Cornwallis' decision to establish a fortified base at Yorktown wasn't stupid at the time he made it. Entrenching yourself on a peninsula is a problem if you don't control the sea, but it's great if you do...and the British had throughout the entire war up to that time, and had little reason to fear they would lose that control. Plus, the primary source of supply for the British was seaborne (as noted, their forays inland into the countryside tended to not go well), so it made perfect sense for them to establish a fortified base at a port. The British had a longstanding tradition of sea supremacy, and tended to base their campaign plans around that. The British maintained sea supremacy throughout almost the entire war...except for that one brief period where they didn't, which turned out to be the important part. Yorktown only became a debacle for the British because of their naval defeat at The Chesapeake, which happened after Cornwallis' decision to retreat there, and was due to the failure of the naval commanders, not Cornwallis himself.
Who else here is watching these to binge study for a history exam?
Hell yeah! Pals in procrastinating studying til the last second! Woot woot!
I'm right there with you guys! xD
I actually almost aced my midterm cause of these videos! Haha!
yup CLEP test
Me I am not even american
One reason I love Crash Course is because they always try to be non-biased. I hate how in some textbook stories and stuff people intentionally try to lighten up one side and antagonize others, or simply omit or exaggerate some information in order to make the story more dramatic and patriotic.
My favorite line from this video: "Well, Americans like to think that we all pitched in together and got rid of British tyranny, and lived happily ever after. Also that the Continental Army was the bravest, most loyal, and most effective fighting force in human history thanks to the leadership of George Washington. But actually- Well, yeah, let's go to the Thought Bubble."
Sorry if I offended you. It's just that I'm really offended by bias.
41 more videos till i will be kinda prepared to take my APUSH Exam! WE CAN DO IT
+Alyssa ugh same...
How'd that go?

Speaking of Crash Course: Mathematics, that's something I need in my life.
Probably should divide that between the types. Like Algebra, Trig, Geometry, Calc, all that.
Hi John, I just wanted to say that I really like your obective view of not only US, but world history in general. I think that if history books were as realist as your videos we would have better educated children that would realize what is truly important about human values and development and the actual mistakes that history books are supposed to teach us. I myself am not American but I have learned much from your US History videos and I'll do my best to support you in the future. Regards from Mexico.
It would be immensely helpful to have a 5 question quiz at the end of the video to recap the whole chapter we learned in 12 minutes :)

dont act surprised you guys cuz i wrote em
OW, but Hamilton forgets, his plan would have the government assume state's debts

The very seat of government where Hamilton sits.
Ooh, if the shoe fits, wear it
"Don't put that on your AP test!"

HE KNOWS
Maybe its just me, but the American Revolution is a surprisingly overlooked war here in the UK. Don't get me wrong, we are aware of it! But largely through it's importance to Americans and its consequences to US history. Brits don't seem to think of it as one of our most significant wars (which it clearly was) but focus more on its role as giving birth to America. Americans celebrate and commemorate their victory over the British, whereas the British almost forget they fought this war. Maybe its the old cliche that history is written by the winners.
+EASYTIGER10 I think it's more that it just didn't affect you guys as much, or even at all, really. I mean the States was supposed to get Baja California, and would've gotten Canada back in the War of 1812 (what do you guys call that one?) but we didn't. Nobody cares because it doesn't affect us.You guys may remember it just as that one war where you lost a colony, and that's about it. There was no major threat that wanted to invade you and it didn't bring forth any new ideas (as far as I know).
Britain:Oh well, we lost a colony. Looks like we'll have to start turning towards India.
The States:We're free! Let's start our new government! Time to pack up the wagon and head westward.
+EASYTIGER10 The Great British Empire continued to dominate large stretches of the world and didn't reach it's landmass peak until the 1900s, so it affected only a portion of it's land and people but all of the colonists.
+NitroCharizard you are the first American on you tube who actually realises why this war doesnt mean much to the us in the UK, most Americans I speak to just can't wait to tell me that "they kicked our asses" as if they're the only ones who ever did that the truth is we have been getting our asses kicked since about 50AD when we became a Roman colony, our history is a series of great wins and humiliating losses, we've won and lost many colonies in battles with the Spanish and French and America was just another colony back then, the fact that they went on to become the most powerful country in the world is great for them but at this point in history it was seen as just another colony and not worth wasting too much time, money and manpower on when there are other places to discover.
+EASYTIGER10 France, Dutch, Spanish also "gave birth" to what we all USA today. The war started in the North East, where most British colonies were.
or maybe Britain had been in many wars before and after. I mean, America was a "new" country
I adore seeing all these Hamilton comments!
Aaron burr sir
i'm here to learn more to understand Hamilton better, is this a good place to start?
Yeah! You should also check out Ron Chernow's biography of him that musical was based off of.
*Because the world turned upside down*
To Hank andJohn and all the wonderful people at Crash Course,
THANK YOU! Your videos are insightful and educational and FUN. I find them so enjoyable that sometimes I just let them play in the background as I'm doing other things.
I have a little request/suggestion: Could you lovely people ever make a Crash Course Business series? Just as examples, the evolution of corporate business. Start up stuff. New focuses on Sustainable Investment et cetera.
Just thought I'd make that request.
Thank you once more.
Thank you John Green and the Crash Course team for making my study of the American Revolution interesting to me! I am really trying to figure out why this part of history is so boring to me... and I love history! Best wishes and y'all are always awesome!
Every time I see the phrase "We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal" I can't help but sing it in my head to the tune of 'Work', from Hamilton.
(The Schuyler Sisters) Same!
YES.
Same, sista! I wish to hear the phrase randomly in the streets and jump to scream WOOOOOORK.
it's actually the schuyler sisters
lost castaway love your profile pic!
I'M LEARNING THIS IN CANADIAN SOCIAL STUDIES AND I AM SO HAPPY BECAUSE I GET TO APPLY MY HAMILTON KNOWLEDGE YAH
Gladiator in a Suit SAME!!!
Hey crew of Crash Course! I am from the great mitten state and currently enrolled in a university! Right now I am in an American Experience class, and as I am studying I watch a chunk of crash course that pertains to our section we are on! 3 weeks or so ago I received my 1st college A on my multiple/fill in the blank exam! I dedicated my score to my teacher in 10th grade and you guys! Last Friday I took another exam and I nailed it on the head again!
Thank you for the breakdown and perspective of the event. Its always interesting to learn the details of American Rev.
Hi, I'm from France, and I agree with you; if it weren't for our support in the american revolution, this would be the history of Southern Canada.
Best wishes
Ger0 Not so!! It would have taken longer for the Americans to win their cause and there is a possibility that they would have become discouraged, but it they hung in there then they would have won in the end. When the British invaded the cities, the Americans took over the countryside. Wherever the British went the Americans would move away and establish themselves somewhere else. The British would have eventually realized that they could not win this war in the face of a determined and collective American population. They might have won if they had used their "divide and conquer" strategy. Can't imagine what shape that might have taken but they could have disrupted the American effort if they could get the individual states sufficiently angry with each other. There's a thought!! Because of the way the war was fought, the outcome was inevitable. Britain learned something though. They learned to adjust to their colonies aspirations and even to let go when they no longer wanted to be associated with the motherland. That may be why the empire lasted so long.
Given how it turned out, (only with the support of one of the 3 competing world superpowers at that time) we can easily assume what would have happened if France hadn't supported the americans :
- the english would have won ==> history of New England
- the battle would have lasted much longer, thus weakening both the americans and the english ==> history of southern Canada and northern Mexico
So yes, if it weren't for France's support, this would not be the history of the United States of America.
Ger0 You misunderstood my comment, GerO. I said the Americans would have won anyway, as long as they did not become discouraged by a long war. The money, weapons, munitions, and troops that France provided helped pay for the war and to win the final battle. There were more foreign troops fighting with the Americans at Yorktown than Americans. The final battle sealed the outcome of the war long before a long drawn out guerilla campaign could have ever succeeded, but even without foreign help, I believe the Americans would have won eventually. We have seen so many guerilla type wars in more recent times that prove that a well equipped and trained army cannot defeat a determined guerilla force fighting at home: Algeria, Viet Nam, etc.
Ger0 but we more than repaid our debts when we liberated you and rebuilt your nation on the federal dime
Ger0 and without America you would be speak German and not French
The slave issue in early US history (1776-1850) was mostly there because the founding fathers thought independence was more important since the southern states would vote no on Virginia's proposal of independence. However they set up the basis for free slaves in the Bill Of Rights and in the Declaration of Independence. In the continental congress, if one state voted no on independence, it was rejected. So it was critical to make ALL the states happy with the resolution before they could pass it.
When the ap test rolls around, all that I'll be able to remember is that Washington "had a funny voice"...thanks John
THE BATTLE OF YORKTOWN *da da da dun* 1781
Monsieur Hamilton!
Monsieur Lafayette!
In com-
And once again
Rochambeau too
Command where we belong, now you say no sweat
So what happens if we win?
I go back to France I bring freedom to my people if I am given the chance
We’ll be with you when you do
Go lead your men
I’ll see you on the other side
Til we meet again!
I'm British but grats On your independance! I mean ppl say that you allied with the French and spaniards but how else would you have won? Any way you had courage and spirit and got there in the end!
Then the british were like "HA YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE IMPORTANT" and went on to conquer an empire yet to be matched that the sun never set on with a total square mileage of 13 square million miles, like 4 times the size of america today lol well done.
Yes we did have the biggest empire. But Americas here to stay. Doesn't mean the Brits don't have some influence today. Also we'd probs have more influence if we left the eu! Silly Obama, I like you but you've been a silly person recently.
Jelskoph Frodham TY sir!!
Just remember that patriotism should only go so far!
And justin thank you as well!
Germany didn't exist. Don't you mean the "Hesse"?
50% of comments: Hamilton references.
50% of comments: APUSHers let's go!!
There is a horrible lack of Alexander Hamilton in this episode
I know right?
There would be so much Alexander Hamilton if this video was made today though.
I know
it would turn the video upside down.
Yeah John really through away his shot didnt he?
I enjoy reading history and talking about history and this channel is the best. I can listen to these videos for hours.
I got really upset when he didn't mention anything about hamilton....
Every other founding fathers story gets told every other founding father get to grow old *cries*
but when your gone who remembers your name who who keeps your flame who tells your story
Who tells your story
Elizaaaaa!
i establish the first private orphanage in new york city...
T.T
I put myself back in the narrative...
*Edit: I feel like I was half drunk half sobbing when I wrote this*
Let's cram for the AP exam guys!!
+Alex Lim Especially since it's tomorrow, oh God >.
+Lauren Kasper same
I relate to this so much you don't even know
+Shasta Hall Haha, I'm probably going to stay up all night watching these then memorize my handy dandy six hundred flashcards. Good luck on your exam! :)
I Love your Videos! They are so informative and entertaining. and light-hearted, and intelligent.
You know what these videos are helpful to my home school child. It there is a subject she finds boring she asked to watch it on crash course. Keep you the good work guys...
You make U.S. History even more interesting using your good humour.Thank you
First off, I love the videos! They are so helpful when it comes to learning history in a quick and efficient way. Second, are you saying the taxes didn't matter as much as what they implied?
+Alix Irvine (alirvs) Yes, that's exactly what he's saying. :)
Just spent waaaay too long replying to Hamilton references in the comments.... darnit, I need to study! Maybe I'll just listen to one more song...or two... I will never be satisfied.
quinintheclouds , I understand you, I just did the same thing lol
I like trains.
quinintheclouds lol
Well he never gonna be president now!
Never goin' be president now!!!
AP US History Exam Friday and instead of sitting down studying my textbook I am laying down in my bed watching Crash Course!
6:30 saw a xenomorph appear at the word unalienable, laughed so hard I fell over
My AP exam is tomorrow and I'm crying on the inside.
Lindsey Sheridan It's an extra class in college if you failed. Don't sweat that test. Nonetheless, hope you did well.
Lindsey Sheridan -does AP stand for amateur pornography ?
Lindsey Sheridan It's an American exam, I'm sure you'll all get A's
Lindsey Sheridan I think you passed cuz your comments is 3 months ago XD
andy nguyen Or she died.
Thanks John! I watched this video and learned alot about the revolution!
We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal. And when I meet Thomas Jefferson, I'll ask him to include women in the sequel.
+Raina Pope Work!
+Raina Pope And specify black people are included too.
+tigerwa
Have you seen Hamilton?
+Raina Pope Ask to make it so that women are drafted too, so that they don't enjoy the right to vote without having to sign up to put their life on the line. Ya know, cause that would mean men AND women had to die on battlefields in order to protect their nation. And men AND women would have to suffer PTSD if they managed to survive combat. And men AND women would be asked to kill human beings as well.
werk
Love what you do. You really engage the audience. If you could do this for math it would be spectacular.
Crash Course: History of Southern Canada! I'd watch that!!
The closed captions are giving me life right now. I have a little more hope in my APUSH final now than I did before :)
Excellent production! Love your vids :D
HEY I’M CANADIAN!!
Great video. I actually learned something. We had a test on the revolutionary war, however everyone in my class didn't do too well because it was mostly about matching dates with events.
Getting prepared for my AP US History test on Friday. Hoping for a 4! If I get one its all thanks to Crash Course honestly
Fun nugget of info I found when researching for my Historiography Paper for my Senior Seminar for my BA in history is that the first abolition societies in New England cropped up around 1774-1775, coinciding with the start of the AWFI/American Revolution.
I'll dig up the source if I can
Am I the only one to notice the Pokemon cards being trading between the two patriots during the beginning of the thought bubble? :D
I like young John Green's Harry Potter Puppet Pals teeshirt.
Thank you for this cause I don't learn anything in my U.S. history class and this helps me not fail my tests
3:30 Gotta love that Wilhelm scream.
I learned that Washington had a funny voice. Who else?
3:34 hey look! a Wilhelm ancestor!
Must be a relative of my little sister's teacher!
Love the ending part. Well said.
We really like your vidieos.We learn alot from. Plus we get A plus
this is an older video, but I till want to say thank you. It was entertaining and informative, but perhaps more importantly hinted that just because we as a society in These United States are STILL working on implementing the ideals this country was founded on, and we should NEVER quit. Perfection is not a destination, it is a journey.
Me on my AP exam: What was George Washington most famous for? His funny voice of course!
HAHAHAH i love the nod to master shake from Aqua teen hunger force (when he talks about french fries)... for real though, I have already graduated college with a bachelors degree and am now watching all these videos and wish I had learned all this info from crash course the first time around.
Thank you for helping me study!
3:34 Wilhelm Scream FTW!!
2:37
*whispers* Monsieur Hamilton. Monsieur Lafayette. In command where you belong. How you say no sweat.
I love this guy He taught me everything growing up in the school. And now I hate to say it but he retired he is the greatest teacher I think
This helped me in class! thanks for the information :3
"To the Union, To the Revolution. And the Hope that it Provides."
The main reason Britain lost to me was the fact that they overlooked one big problem. And it was big. The Atlantic Ocean. As John stated, the colonists had home field advantage, while the British had to import everything from Britain. If the colonists needed cannons, they'd melt down bells. If the British needed cannons, they shipped them from Britain. If the colonists needed troops, they'd knock on their neighbors (or neighbours if you're gonna be like that) front door. Britain again had to ship from Britain. Makes fighting difficult, especially when you don't have a clear strategy. But if you're gonna go there, yes the colonists had help from Spain, France, and Netherlands, ending Britain's naval supremacy. But in all fairness, they didn't jump in immediately. They waited a bit to see whether or not it was a lost cause. I will now wait for people to tell me I'm wrong.
And we were fighting napoleon at the same time
That was The War of 1812.
White Rose I meant Britain had naval superiority over the colonists.
White Rose I'm not disputing that at all. Britain's naval force was fantastic.
Good point,thank you for adding to the discussion!
4:20 Damn, that's so amazing for them!!! What's cool it's that once fred they can find a way to run. So amazing.
1:46 Definitely gonna use that
Have you ever thought of doing a Crash Course Mathematics? I am a mathematician, a teacher and tutor who loves your Crash Course segments and would love to help you do it if you're interest. Let me know, cause that'd be awesome, and I think mathematics could use a serious revamp when it comes to teaching and conveying it.
He only does this type of work for a reason.. probably cause he only knows this type of work..
so, i'm taking college classes from one of my favorite authors..... I love that it only took me 7 videos
Thank you, John Green! I owe my test scores to you!
Huge help on one of my APUSH essays
Can’t wait for him to do a lesson on 2020 :) glad to be in it! I know l about it!:)
If it was not for us, the French, then the US never would have become free.
God bless the USA !
François Royal Yh well done. You dumped every penny you had into them and after it was all done you were completely bankrupt and lost your superpower status and could never rival Britain again which was what the entire thing was about. Then during the French Revolution you asked the USA for help and they said nah, cba. But yh, God bless them lol
Even.Ways Music Unfortunately. Vive le Roi.
Egemen Bostan What? The Fleur-de-Lis represents Monarchial France far more than it represents Florence, believe me.
Egemen Bostan Right, then.
+François Royal And if it wasn't for the US, France never would've been liberated in WW2! Took a while but we payed the debt we owed you.
You defined "Liberty " at the very end. Thanks
This guy breaks it down perfectly man he makes the 7-12 SS exam book put in last place
.... am I the only one who misses the mongols
So who else is cramming for the Us history AP exam tomorrow?
+theycallmestacie meeeeeee lmao
Hahah good luck to you and everyone else!
Yep. I didn't take the AP class, but I took normal US History last year and I was really good at that so I decided to take the test this year. I'm trying to cram the entire year in one night.
+theycallmestacie yep
+theycallmestacie me lol
Aww, look at little baby face John. So much has changed.
I love it when he doesn't get shocked.
C'mon guys and gals, what nation on Earth has a history that's positive in any way? All of human history is basically us murdering each other for one reason or another.
Thindorama you are clearly an idiot, failed by the education system and indoctrination of a country you have been brainwashed to love. There is no evidence to say america is the most free country in the world, either economically or socially and no measure of freedom ranks america as number one. In fact, according to the index for human freedom which measures civil liberties in different countries, america only has a ranking of 7th not 1st. maybe check your facts and educate yourself before you spout this nonsense.
Thindorama actually it was the republicans who passed the 2001 patriot act, one of the largest assaults on freedoms since the conception of your beloved country. again, educate yourself before you speak. if you really wish to continue with this im more than happy to embarrass you
Thindorama "none are as hopelessly enslaved as those that believe they are free"
Thindorama You are an idiot if you think the patriot act doesn't destroy some freedoms. Of course it does. How uneducated are you?
Johnny Watts I googled "canada" and "atrocities" and it spit out an apology Canada gave to its Indian population for the poor living and education systems that it's forced on them for 100 years. I mean the details are bad, but that's a pretty small stain on an otherwise very positive history.
For comparison, Americans massacred their Indians to the point of near extinction, and the British committed atrocities to Indians on two different continents.
He already knows we are watching for that AP test lol 1:54
Got AP World History coming up soon. Time to watch every Crash Course History Video ever to prepare.
The Hamilton memories and refrences are insaneeeeeeeee
