Its hard to tell who won this battle because the Americans had killed more people but we also retreated. I will say the Americans won this one!

Battle of Charleston

The British had focused on attacking the Southern Colonies. After capturing Savannah they continued toward Charleston. This time we didn't just loose the city we also lost 5,000 troops so this battle ended very badly for us.

Valley Forge
Winter of 1777 - 1778
We had just finished some battles and winter was setting in and George was getting worried about the troops so he had sought to find a place to stay for this harsh winter that was coming upon us. He had some luck and found us a place called Valley Forge. It was a camp for the soldiers to stay with little cabins everywhere. It wasn't much but it was something! We also met two new people a guy named Von Steuben and another guy named Marquis Lafayette, I hope they can help us win some battles!

The Battle of Saratoga
Fall of 1777
This was a long battle, so long it lasted 18 days and spread out 9 miles! But this time the French were fighting with us! We didn't start off with all this help but further on in the battle more forces came to help us witch led us to a victory! Witch is good for us, because we need some more wins.
