  • Battle of the Monongahela

      This is what the war was called outside of America. We call it of course, The French & Indian War. But in this battle Washington did not win. In fact, he knows he would've lost so he surrendered! The Indians scalped the people who died. Only 780 out of 2000 lived.
  • Braddock
    • Matthew Dumbrique
       
      Braddock died during the war. He gave Washington a sash (which is as scarf). They buried Braddock under a road so that they wouldn't have the Indians scalp Braddock. They had to cover up the burial place by walking over it.
  • Braddock died of his wounds on July 13, four days after the battle, and was buried on the road near Fort Necessity.
    • Matthew Dumbrique
       
      To this day Braddock's body is concealed behind a fence under a rock. That small piece of land doesn't belong to the states. It belongs to England and that's their property since Braddock was an English General.

      This battle made Washington look like a complete idiot! Although he made himself look stupid he was very useful. He gotshot under his horse (throughout his lifetime) and survived. His battles in general were nothing to him. He would stand in the middle and wouldn't get a single scratch.

    the boston tea party was when a party of people dressed up like indians and raided a english merchandise ship filled with tea, they overwhelmed the crew and threw all of the tea over board
  •  
    The Indemnity Act of 1767, which gave the East India Company a refund of the 25% duty on tea that was re-exported to the colonies, expired in 1772. Parliament passed a new act in 1772 that reduced this refund to three-fifths of the 25% duty, which effectively left a 10% duty on tea imported into Britain.
  •  
    Controversy between Great Britain and the colonies arose in the 1760s when Parliament sought, for the first time, to directly tax the colonies for the purpose of raising revenue. Some colonists, known in the colonies as Whigs, objected to the new tax program, arguing that it was a violation of the British Constitution.

      Francis was undecided in the beggining. He became a patriot when the leader of the dragoons killed his second oldest son.
  • Francis Marion (c. 1732 – February 26, 1795) was a military officer who served in the American Revolutionary War. Acting with Continental Army and South Carolina militia commissions, he was a persistent adversary of the British in their occupation of South Carolina in 1780 and 1781, even after the Continental Army was driven out of the state in the Battle of Camden.
    • Kevin Rodriguez
       
      He was a military officer who served in the Revolutionary war. He was with the Continental army and South Carolina militia. He was taken out of the state in the fight in Camden.

      He was in the militia in South Carolina. He joined when the Dragoons burned his house. When he went looking for men to join his militia he went to find his friends that had helped him in the French and Indian war. Most of them agreed to join.
  • Marion began his military career shortly before his 25th birthday. On January 1, 1757, Francis and his brother Job were recruited by Cap. John Postell for the French and Indian War to drive the Cherokee away from the border. In 1761 Marion served as a lieutenant under Cap. William Moultrie in a campaign against the Cherokee.

    Francis Marion lost his two sons. Benjamin Martin was supposed to Francis Marion.
  •  
    Francis Marion was very violent. He has been in the French and Indian War. He killed many French men. The French officer who helped him in the Battle of the south didn't like what Marion has done. But his French attitude hasn't changed his heart for a new free country, the United States of America.
