Answer: True
Explanation: The Continental Army was an army made up of colonists and many volunteers, for example from France, who joined the Continental Army to fight Britain and support the ideals of the American Revolution based on the Enlightenment ideas. At the beginning of the Revolution, the army consisted mainly of members of the militia who were generally not experienced enough for this type of combat, when compared to the much more experienced British Army, which in addition had better weapons. That is why it was necessary for the colonists to unite under a Continental Army that officially began to exist following the decision of the Continental Congress on June 14, 1775. The commander in chief of such official armies was George Washington. During the first years of the Revolution, the army branched into all the necessary branches of the army, to become strong during the Revolution, above all in its decision for independence. When all aspects of military morale, military skill were examined, though the British military was generally superior, the desire and ideal for independence was crucial.
