    Dichiarare l’indipendenza fu solo l’inizio.

    Tra il 1776 e il 1783, le tredici colonie dovettero trasformare un’idea in una realtà: resistere a sconfitte, divisioni interne e difficoltà enormi, ottenere l’appoggio della #Francia, arrivare fino a #Yorktown e al Trattato di Parigi.

  5. 2/23 Who is the greatest American #president? Most short lists include:

    #GeorgeWashington, the visionary #RevolutionaryWar hero, #FoundingFather and 1st president. Quite the resume.

    However, the nod usually goes to #AbrahamLincoln. After all, "he freed the slaves" and kept the Union together through #CivilWar victory.

    And, he was...a #Republican!
