The Battle of Independence refers to a series of conflicts fought between the colonies in North America and British forces during the late 18th century. This struggle was primarily driven by the colonies' desire for self-governance and freedom from British rule. Key events included the American Revolutionary War, which lasted from 1775 to 1783, and involved significant battles such as those at Lexington, Concord, and Yorktown. The outcome of the Battle of Independence led to the establishment of the United States of America. The signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1783 formally recognized American independence, marking a significant shift in global power dynamics. This conflict laid the foundation for the development of democratic principles and governance in the new nation.
