but once the Minutemen got organized and started using guerrilla warfare instead of standing up in the battlefields and firing in a straight line until everyone was dead, they started to actualy win battles. The British outnumbered them and used German mercinaries, but the US had France as an ally to help out. After they decided that it was a war that waan't worth winning, the British pulled out and gave up.

So in the version of history that I read, we won the war of independance. We are no longer colonies to England. Also saying that we are the same as England because our roots came from there because of the colonies is a falsehood. The US is a melting pot of people from all over the world. We are all not having roots from Merry Olde England anymore. There is quite an ethic mix of people in the US, so you cannot lump us in with England anymore. To do so would be wrong and politically incorrect.
