In 100 to 150 words, compare and contrast the u. s. revolution and the south american revolution.

    The U.S. Revolution and the South American Revolution were both fought between citizens (people who fought for independence) and colonizers (the mother country). The citizens of the colonized areas fought against high taxes. They also wanted political change and, as a result, created Republics. However, the Patriots (Americans) were more united and therefore, the Latin Revolution took twice as long. Furthermore, there was class division in South America.

most of the knowledge we have of the conflict comes from roman-jewish scholar titus flavius josephus, who first fought in the revolt against the romans, but was then kept by future emperor vespasian as a slave and interpreter.
