Yep...you really had us served in the war of independence...with a little help from

THE FRENCH

You neglected to mention that Britain had a "little help" as well, well before the French helped the Americans.

England had purchased "Hessian" troops, from six principalities in GERMANY - early in the War.

The Battle of Saratoga was the turning point of the war, when we beat Burgoyne, and the German troops led by Genreral von Riedesel, etc. It was then the French saw that the Revolution could be won by the Patriots and got involved.



SARATOGA, NEW YORK October 17, 1777 - A British army of nearly 7,000 surrendered today to a combined force of American militia and Continental regulars. "The fortunes of war have made me your prisoner," said British General John Burgoyne as he handed over his sword to his American counterpart, Horatio Gates. "I shall always be ready to testify that it was through no fault of your excellency," Gates replied.

News of the momentous British defeat spread quickly through the colonies and fueled speculation that the French government would now seriously consider entering the conflict on the American side. For months, rumors have suggested that Louis XVI needed solid proof of the strength of the revolution before he would officially commit French military aid to the cause. The British defeat at Saratoga could very well buy that help.

yeah nice comparison....you may be in the UN, but the US only contributes 350 peacekeepers, out of a total 95 000, meaning that they have about as much involvement in the UN as in the League. And regardless of Germanies dealing with other nations, if America had been part of the league then this fact alone would have been enough to make Hitler think twice about expanding into europe, considering the industrial and military power of the US.

and dude, please calm down. Im thinking maybe we could have a rational debate instead of just shouting "UR A RTARD LOOL"

At the beginning of WW2 we were rated number 7 based on military strength. Hitler was impressed by our national resources, not our military power.

How times have changed........:S2: Don't worry though, shit hits the roof again we got your back.

Have a good one!:s4:

Well after kicking some Brit ass in 1776 and 1812 then being of the forgiving nature decided to help ya all out in WW1. I would imagine that we held off a bit and saw if the lil' dog could do it on their own but Pearl Harbor was the key that told us that the big dog was NEEDED again. So once again, Uncle Sam to the rescue.

By the way, your welcome!

Have a good one!:s4:

Sorry man, but the Americans pretty much got their asses handed to them in the War of 1812....mostly from Canadian militias. Oh yea!! The Americans most certainly did not WIN the war of 1812. I bet that taught you Yanks a lesson.

Next time you plan on invading Canada...bring some Pampers.
