Comparisons of the revolutions in Czechoslovakia and in America enable us to look in some detail at their attempts to vanquish two of the strictest regimes in Eastern Europe and in Northern America . The events took them in opposing directions, yet united them in their hopes. These two countries, despite sharing the same objectives, are now remembered very differently. They are in many ways the two extremes, Czechoslovakia - 'The Velvet Revolution' so named for being civil and without deaths. To compare the revolutionary events we mu

The American war for independence can be dated back to times of the British victory in the French and Indian War. It had a great impact on the British Empire. Firstly, it meant a great expansion of British territorial claims in the New World. But the cost of the war had greatly enlarged Britain's debt. Moreover, the war generated substantial resenment towards the colonists among English leaders, who were not satisfied with the financial and military help they had received from the colonists during the war. All these factors combined to persuade many English leaders that the colonies needed a major reorganization and that the central authority should be in London. The English leaders set in motion plans to give London more control over the government of the colonies and these plans were eventually a big part of the colonial resentment towards British imperial policies that led to the American Revolution. The British got a sense of ruling their colonies effectively and the sense of imposing a strict and tight control. On the other hand, American colonies got a feeling of being no more dependent on Britain’s military aid, and the struggle for independence could have been started in the minds of most of the people.

The war had an equally profound but very different effect on the American colonists. First of all, the colonists had learned to unite against a common foe. Before the war, the thirteen colonies had found almost no common ground and they coexisted in mutual distrust. But now thay had seen that together they could be a power to be reckoned with. And the next common foe would be Britain.
