In the American Revolution Marquis de Lafayette, continued to take a stand for the war for the freedom of america during 1765-1783. So as the war moves throughout all of the 13 colonies, actions that were taken was fighting in the battles to improve politically, and helping by sending supplies to other people to help socially. One other thing was helping the constitutional problems causing changes to be a new government, their own taxation availability and to make laws. The american revolution affected the individuals because it allowed people to have the liberty and freedom they deserved. It affected the community and the nation, because it help them make a better government all together, but it affected the world by letting people know that they could not just be pushed around under unfair government situations. We fight not to enslave, but to set free, and to make room upon the the earth for honest men to live in. -Thomas Paine
