The American Revolution (1775-83) is also known as the American Revolutionary War and the U.S. War of Independence. The conflict arose from growing tensions between residents of Great Britainâs 13 North American colonies and the colonial government, which represented the British crown.
After the French and Indian War ended in 1763, Americans in the 13 colonies became divided in their feelings toward Great Britain. About 1/3 of the colonists supported England. They wanted to remain English and loyal to King George III of England.They called themselves Loyalists or Tories.fter the French and Indian War ended in 1763, Americans in the 13 colonies became divided in their feelings toward Great Britain.
