How many more soldiers did the Americans have than british?
500+
Why did the Americans win the battle of Trenton?
Americans won because they surprised the British. The British had celebrated Christmas the night before the battle which had caused them to be a little groggy/drunk when fighting. Also, they didn't have the time to gather and line up like they had practiced because of the principle of surprise. The Americans had chosen a very smart time to surprise the British. They were rewarded with a victory.
Compare British and American strategies for fighting the American Revolutionary War?
One was the American had more advantages, like how they knew the land. Additional answer The main problem was that the Americans did not want to be ruled by, and pay any taxes to, an outside country like GB. Also, they did not have representation (i.e. they couldn't vote in Parliament). So they started a war to overthrow the British rulers.
Do Americans think they're better than the British?
The majority of Americans do not hate the British and do not think they are better than them, but there will always be the prideful few who do think America is better, just like in Britain where a few think they are better than the Americans. Americans actually find some of the British's culture and mannerisms fascinating and interesting. Most Americans have a more mature view of the world than this, though like all countries there are nationalist elements who see all other countries as inferior to their own.
What did the war hawks blame great Britain for?
They were angry about impressment. British people loved to work for Americans because Americans gave them more money. British soldiers weren't to happy about that, though. So, the soldiers boarded American ships to look for the British sailors. But, sometimes they caught American sailors instead. So, the War Hawks declared war.
