Answer: One of the perspectives that the colonists had on the war was that some stayed loyal to the king until he denied their olive branch. Other colonists did not join the Washington's Army until they defeated the British. Examples of Washington's victories includes the Battle at Saratoga

Answer:

The colonies were critical to the war effort as a source of both labor and materials. Empires could not prosecute a successful war without colonial troops. Paradoxically, the call to arms to defend empire coexisted with the inferior status of non-white people within the imperial hierarchy.
