In March of 1776 British troops invaded Boston causing colonists many problems. George Washington was able to force the British to leave Boston by pointing his cannons at them and demanding their departure.

he forced the British out of Boston, lost New York City, and crossed the Delaware River in New Jersey, defeating the surprised enemy units later that year. As a result of his strategy, Revolutionary forces captured the two main British combat armies at Saratoga and Yorktown. Negotiating with Congress, the colonial states, and French allies, he held together a tenuous army and a fragile nation amid the threats of disintegration and failure. Following the end of the war in 1783, King George III asked what Washington would do next and was told of rumors that he'd return to his farm; this prompted the king to state, "If he does that, he will be the greatest man in the world." Washington did return to private life and retired to his plantation at Mount Vernon.

I hope that helps :)

How many wars did George Washington fight?

George Washington was in two wars. The French and Indian War and the Revolutionary War. He was only a field grade officer during the French and Indian War. He tried to become an officer in the British Army. However, he got denied. Then when America started to pull away from Britian, George Washington declared his alligence to America and its cause. The people declared him the commanding general of the Continental Army. He then went on to fight and lead the army in the Revolutionary War.


How did Washington change the rules of fighting in the battle of Trenton Christmas 1776?

He changed the rules by fighting the british by fighting during Christmas, adn in horrible weather. None would ever have a battle on bad weather because back then they had to carry all their weapons and they didnt wan to pull allk their heavy weapond in the snow, rain exc. they also fought on Christmas because Washington kinda knew that the British would be sorta drunk so it was basiclly an easy fight.


Did Washington kill anyone during revolution?

No, George Washington did not kill his wife. MORE: Martha Washington survived her husband several years after his death. She watched the Masonic funeral from a second floor window of the house. She locked herself in her bedroom and she was so upset over his death.


How did the Revolutionary War start?

The American Revolution started as a result of the breakdown in the relationship of Britain and its Thirteen Colonies. Continued seemingly punitive laws and taxes were enacted by Parliament for the colonies. Proper efforts were not made to address grievances on both sides. As a result, the colonists came to believe they were better off on their own than with Britain.


Was George Washington the first to ride a horse sidesaddle?

He certainly liked to be seen on horseback.
