Introduction The American Revolutionary War, also known as The American War of Independence or T he American Revolution (1775–83), is a rebellion that led 13 of Britain's North American colonies to political independence and formed the United States. The war followed the expansion of alienation for more than a decade between the British Crown and its large and influential segment of the North American colony. Until early 1778, the conflict was a civil war within the British Empire, but then when France (1778) and Spain (1779) joined the colony against Britain, it became an international war. From the beginning, naval power was extremely important in deciding the course of the war. The Navy provided flexibility to British strategy, offsetting a relatively small number of troops sent to the United States and ultimately enabling the French to help the US bring about the final British surrender at Yorktown.

What is "Multiverse" ? The Multiverse is a hypothetical group of multiple universes. Together, these universes embrace everything that exists: space, time, matter, energy, the whole of information, and the laws and constants that explain them. The various universes in the Multiverse are called "parallel universes," "other universes," "alternative universes," or "many worlds." History of "Multiverse Theory" American philosopher and psychologist William James used the term "multiverse" in 1895, but in a different context. Erwin Schrödinger gave a lecture in Dublin in 1952, where he jokingly warned the audience that what he was trying to say might "sound crazy."

This type of duality is called "superposition". Examp...

  What is "Cold War" ? Cold War, the open yet restricted rivalry that developed after World War II between the United States and the Soviet Union and their respective allies.The Cold War was fought politically, economically, and propaganda, with limited reliance on weapons. Origin of the Cold War Shortly before the end of World War II, after the surrender of Nazi Germany in May 1945, an uncertain wartime alliance between the United States and Great Britain on the one hand and the Soviet Union on the other began to break. By 1948, the Soviet Union had established left-wing governments in Eastern European countries liberated by the Red Army. Americans and British were afraid of permanent Soviet rule in Eastern Europe and the danger of Soviet-influenced Communists taking power in democracy in Western Europe. Meanwhile, the Soviet Union was determined to maintain control of Eastern Europe to prevent the possibility of new threats from Germany, and was keen to ...
