- FORCES AND MEN
- For the British military, their sheer numbers served as a great advantage. With a well-fed, well-supplied, and well-taken-care-of fighting force, Britain hoped to retain the dominance of their military superiority over the world.
- Slayt: 2
- FORCES AND MEN
- The American forces were at a severe disadvantage. One in five colonists were still loyal to the crown with another half wanting to avoid the conflict altogether, creating much difficulty for recruitment. The Americans were also under-supplied and underpaid.
- Slayt: 3
- MILITARY TECHNOLOGY AND SUPERIORITY
- The British enjoyed a tremendous advantage in terms of military technologies and superiority. Their navy was the best in the world, and as a wealthy nation, arms and weaponry were easy to supply.
- Slayt: 4
- MILITARY TECHNOLOGY AND SUPERIORITY
- For the Americans, military technology and superiority were nearly non-existent. Arms and supplies were raised through communal efforts, and navy or technological advantages would not come until the arrival of French forces later in the war.
- Slayt: 5
- GEOGRAPHY AND LANDSCAPE
- Are we supposed to be over there?
- The British lacked knowledge about the geography and landscape of the northeast. Newly arrived soldiers and generals were often misguided and became vulnerable due to their new surroundings. The vastly different climates of the colonies also served as a disadvantage.
- Slayt: 6
- GEOGRAPHY AND LANDSCAPE
- That'a way, boys!
- The Americans very much enjoyed their abilities to navigate their homeland. By possessing knowledge of paths, roads, and major geographical landscapes, the Americans were able to outmaneuver and outsmart many British attacks and defenses.
- Slayt: 7
- THE WILL AND DRIVE TO FIGHT
-
- We can't attack yet, we don't have any orders.
- I can't wait to go back to London.
- One of the largest disadvantages for the British was their lack of will and drive to fight the war itself. Miles from home, waiting on orders from the mother country, and general lack of motivation served as a crucial ideological disadvantage.
- Slayt: 8
- THE WILL AND DRIVE TO FIGHT
- Win us our freedom!
- The Americans' will to fight was immense. Ideas of freedom, protecting what they had built, and the thought of a future country of their own provided the colonial forces with determination.
