Again, what happened between the US and Britain was a demostic dispute. This dispute was ended with a peace treaty in 1783 between the US, Britain and France where Britain agreed to let go of America and recognize America's independence. Your link is about what happened in 1787. That was the year when the US ratified the constitution that it currently lives under. That has nothing to do with the end of the American Revolution since the constitution that the US was living under during the American Revolution was the failed Articles of Confederation. Since you like wikipedia, here's an article that talks the meeting you said that never happened. I will also agree that what's going in Ukraine is pretty much the same thing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Paris_(1783) Domestic wars of independence happen a lot. Sometimes they're successful, sometimes they're not. Also, you ask why we never play France's national hymne on our Independence day? It's the same reason Western Europe doesn't play the American National Anthem on V.E. Day. It's not our song. We have ours just like they have theirs. Since you brought up Kosovo, I know what you're talking about.....sort of. See, the US didn't declare Kosovo's independence. They declared it themselves and the US along with other countries simply recognized it. Recognizing one nation or territory has nothing to do with violating another country's sovereignty. Had the US actually invaded Serbia and declared Cosovo as a nation, then that would have been considered a violation of Serbia's soverignty |
-yeah sure America won ww2?
-So why is russia recognizing abchasia and south ossetia violating georgias sovereignty? Or recognizing the crimean vote who want to be a part of russia?
- so invading serbia and not declaring kosovo as indepdent is okay?
- donbass people fighting for sovereinty is okay as long as they win the fight and ukraine is forced to reconzie it just like uk recognized us state? so that makes your founding fathers terrorists because thats what american media is calling the rebels in eastern ukraine?
