American history begins in Europe where the Roman Constantine the Great replaces the gods Jupiter, Venus, Mars, and Apollo, with Jesus Christ. As the Roman empire fell, the pope rose to dominate Europe. But the great expense of building the church of Saint Peter resulted in the rise of Luther and Calvin. The Protestant reformation led to the very bloody thirty years war with the Catholics. Henry VIII of England was frustrated by the refusal of Pope Clement VII to grant him a divorce, and Henry switched England to the protestant religion. That resulted in free thinking preachers who led their flocks to America. As a result, America became a nation of rebels. American leaders were outraged at George III when he treated them differently from English citizens, and the revolutionary war commenced. Benjamin Franklin convinced the French king Louis XVII to provide troops, funds, and naval support. We fought many battles for seven years, and finally won with our victory at Yorktown in 1781.
