18. Summary: This work talks about what
lead up to the Revolutionary War and
how it came to an end. I believe that a
lot of these factors did play a huge role
in the war and I can see why each
thing lead to something else. This
source was very credible and the
publisher of the website did an
extremely good job on showing the
reader how everything went and came
about.

22. CONCLUSION
In conclusion, The Revolutionary War had many different
causes and effects, there were many different roles and
aspects to look at while discussing the war. You have to
look at each role of each army, you have to look at the role
women played and how they contributed to the war, you
have to look at how slavery played a role in it as well. The
ultimate goal of the revolutionary war was freedom. They
fought for their independence.
