The American War- a Revolution or not? It is well argued by many historians that the great nation of the USA came into being by a civil war and not a revolution. A civil war is when two parties from opposite groups resort to force to decide who will govern a country. It might have partly been a civil war because it’s true that the Americans were fighting against the British. However it was the first time settlers of a colony had challenged their parent country and fought hard to win their independence, and by doing so set up a government with its own laws and constitutions- which is the perfect example of a revolution.
There were many important advancements made during the scientific revolution, but none more important than the work of Isaac Newton. Newton led a somewhat troubled childhood to become possibly the greatest influence on mathematics and science in the history of mankind. Primarily, he was a physicist, but he was also a mathematician, astronomer, philosopher and alchemist. Aside from all of his theories and discoveries he completely revolutionized the approach to science and was a key catalyst to the Scientific Revolution. Isaac Newton was born prematurely on January 4, 1643 in Woolsthorpe Lincolnshire England.
His “Pennsylvania Gazette” made him skilled and wealthy, which allowed him to retire from printing at a fairly young age (Logan, 7).

He invented many things that are still in use today, such as the lightning rod, bifocal glasses, and the Franklin stove (Arnold, 61).
