#and then war of 1812 marks the us's first time defending their sovereignty and truly establishing that britian cant fuck around

I love being stubborn about random historical interpretations. The American Revolution lasted from the Stamp Act Congress in 1765 to the Treaty of Ghent in 1814. (Treaty of Ghent and not the War of 1812 because fuck Andrew Jackson specifically.) Change my mind. You can't. Anyway the scariest thing about being trans is that I'm going from girl who likes history (sexy) to guy who likes history (red flag)

#mercury mumbles #does that mean we kinda lost bc war of 1812 was a shit show? little bit ngl #but like #presidents washington though madison were all revolutionarys #washington and madison were veterans of the amrev actually #(madison was a colonel but he never saw actual combat just drilled) #majority of major political events from 1781 (yorktown) to 1815 (new orleans) werent expanding on anything they were ESTABLISHING #judicial review powers of exec branch necessary and proper clause etc #and then war of 1812 marks the us's first time defending their sovereignty and truly establishing that britian cant fuck around #and that find out would actually happen #but we did get fucking crushed we lost 1812 BIGTIME they burned down the fucking capital #but the treaty of ghent is the first time england treated america as like. actually seperate. #and then the presidents after madison arent known for being founders anymore. #monroe is a protege of jefferson (honestly i could extend the end point of amrev to monroe doctrine). jqadams is adams son #a jackson was a rev war vet but whats he known for? battle of new orleans! (the war was already over tho. useless and fuck a jackson) #yeah. nerd time. #anyway my apush teacher liked my embargo of 1807 shirt #oh no i just realized that one of my tags up there contains amr/v and its gonna get caught in those tags (censored for hope it wont) #i dont care enough to change it honestly woe amrev fandom my hot takes be upon ye
