Final answer:
The American victory in the Revolutionary War resulted in the formal recognition by Great Britain of the United States as an independent country, influence on future revolutions, and U.S. territorial gains post-Revolution. It did not, however, end slavery at that time.
Step-by-step explanation:
The three results of the American victory in the Revolutionary War are:
- Great Britain recognized the United States as an independent country. This was officially acknowledged with the signing of the Treaty of Paris, which brought an end to the Revolutionary War.
- The United States gained territory around the Great Lakes region. This stat came about after the conclusion of the War of 1812 rather than the Revolutionary War, but it was a later effect of the United States establishing itself as an independent nation capable of securing its borders.
- Inspiration for future revolutions: The success of the American Revolution inspired other nations, such as France and Saint-Domingue (later Haiti), to pursue their own revolutions for Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.
It's important to clarify that option B, 'The United States ended slavery throughout the country' is not correct.
Although the American Revolution stirred debates about freedom and liberty, it did not lead to the immediate abolition of slavery, which continued to persist until the Civil War era with the Emancipation Proclamation and the 13th Amendment.
