I need help with my homwork... I need to write 3 paragraphs on what i think was the (1)contributions of the French in the revolutionary war. I need to know (2)how and (3)why they joined and (4)contributions in yorktown. Anyone know this stuff? :shaggy: Merged Post: noone?
First off, read your textbook The French gave money to the americans to help fund it, and sent over mercenaries I belive.
History homeowrk is always a bitch, soooo boring and pointless sometimes. Goodluck tho, wikipedia and google for the win.
WikiPedia is your best bet, but yea, they contributed money towards weapons especially, I believe. Recently went over this.
I wouldn't trust Wikipedia to be really honest with you, as the information on there can me manipulated very easily if you don't know by now. It's one of the worst sources actually.Look in your history textbook, or a trustworthy encylopedia (Encarta isn't too bad), as this seems to be general information, rather than something you need to interpret. (I would recommend academic journals for those.) A simple google search can give you so much information, I don't understand why you need help on this.
