I also forgot to add that there were a lot of battles at the end of the English Reformation as well. 😃 "The Protestant Reformation was the religious, political, intellectual and cultural upheaval dating back to the 16th-century," according to history.com. The Reformation was mainly focused on religious purposes, which lead to inventions such as the printing press. Two of the main points in the English Reformation were the discovery of Lutheranism and Calvinism.

How the American Revolution Started: (1775-1783) “The shot heard around the world”, Tea Act, Stamp Act, and more
Note: Information will be repeated to help clarify. An Introduction The Two Main Combatants Great Britain (also known as the British) -started the American Revolution with the French and Indian War. (This happened because the British wanted more money. They already had control over most of the colonies beforehand but did not focus on the states because of the battle. Since they had control of France after the French and Indian War, (which could make things more expensive,) they needed more money. Great Britain decided to target the colonies and enforced taxes on them, which would have helped them gain the money they needed.)

Adolf Hitler: Early Life
Before Adolf Hitler was Born Alois Hitler, (Adolf Hitler's dad,) was a public servant, beekeeper, and customs officer. But before Adolf was born, Alois had affairs with many different women.

The Boston Tea Party
The Boston Tea Party started when the Massachusetts colonists disguised themselves as Mohawk Indians and dumped 342 chests of tea in the Boston Harbor. They protested the British Parliament's Tea Act in 1773, a bill designed to save the East India Company by greatly lowering its tea tax. This restricted the people in Massachusetts to only buy tea from the East India Company and not anywhere else. This was unfair because no one could start a company without the East India Company getting a cheaper price. 3 ships, the Dartmouth, the Eleanor, and the Beaver arrived at Boston Harbor, demanding that the tea be returned to England. However, the Massachusetts Governor, Thomas Hutchinson, refused. Samuel Adams organized the "tea party" with 60 members from his underground resistance group. Then, they sailed over to Boston Harbor and dumped 18,000 dollars worth of tea on December 16. The Parliament, the government branch with the most power, was ...
