By issuing the Declaration of Independence, adopted by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, the 13 American colonies severed their political connections to Great Britain. The Declaration summarized the colonists’ motivations for seeking independence.

The U.S. Constitution comprises the primary law of the U.S. Federal Government. It describes the three chief branches of the Federal Government (Executive, Legislative and Judicial) and their jurisdictions, and lays out the basic rights of citizens of the United States.

Henry Knox (July 25, 1750 – October 25, 1806) was an American military officer, politician, bookseller, and a Founding Father of the United States. Knox, born in Boston, became a senior general of the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War, serving as chief of artillery in all of George Washington's campaigns. Following the war, he oversaw the War Department under the Articles of Confederation from 1785 to 1789. Washington appointed him the nation's first Secretary of War, a position which he held from 1789 to 1794. He is well known today as the namesake of Fort Knox in Kentucky, which is often conflated with the adjacent United States Bullion Depository.

The outcome of a war is shaped by far more than any single battle, yet battles remain endlessly fascinating - most people have a favorite. Each engagement carries numerous consequences, and it is tempting to speculate endlessly about “what if” scenarios and alternative outcomes. Still, only a handful of battles during the American Revolution truly altered its course. These were the engagements that halted campaigns, forced strategic reassessments, and shifted momentum. Let's learn more!
