· That’s why they won in the end. The British had quantity and quality but not determination they weren’t doing this for their rights they were doing this because the king didn’t want the states to be independent, and I feel like they had sympathy for the American colonies.

· Although they had better weapons they probably didn’t want to do it because they new they just wanted to fight for their rights.
