The American revolution inspired what country?
None. The American Revolution was inspired by various poets-Aristotle, Thomas Hobbes, and John Locke, John Locke being the most famous. These poets had written of the Laws of Nature-"that they are endowed by their creator with certain, unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness." The Declaration of Independence often mentioned these "unalienable rights", for Jefferson did not want to mention specific religions. "...and to assume among the powers of the earth the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's god entitles them." Is one example. By: Notty 129
