Difference was, we were successful and didn't go around killing our own people. If you're referring to the American Revolution, we were able to break away from Britain when pretty much all odds were against us (small fighting force, untrained, little weapons, inexperienced soldiers). Anyways, I'm for the revolution, hopefully it closes up fast though. Its just not fun reading about US soldiers getting shot down or killed for a conflict that we shouldn't be involved in. Honestly we should just back out, minimize military expenditures, and then get back to stealing your resources after the revolution
