Question

On October 7, 1780, men from the mountains of North and South Carolina were able to ambush a group of Loyalist soldiers in which battle?

Answer 1

The battle was called the battle of kings mountain. 

Answer 2

Battle of Kings Mountain was the name of the battle engaged between Men from the ¨Patriots¨ faction, against Loyalist Soldiers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Battle of Kings Mountain was considered as a military engagement between two different parties or groups, the Patriots (who rejected the British rule) against the Loyalist militias (loyal to the British crown).

The battle took place around 9 miles away from rural Cherokee County, South Carolina, a territory that was known before as Kings Mountain, so the location plays a fundamental role in the name and events of the Battle.

The Patriots won dominantly this battle, due to the territory conditions, and mainly, for the strategy they planned (ambush, and the posterior attack) in order to defeat the Loyalist Soldiers.
