In order, list what side of the revolutionary war won the following battles:

Long Island New York August 27, 1776 - Britain #1
White Plains New York October 28, 1776 - America #2
Bennington Vermont August 16, 1777 - America #3
Monmouth New Jersey June 28, 1778 - America #4

You got two wrong, although those are debatable. White Plains was considered a victory by the british because they made washington retreat, but missed their oppurtunity to cripple washington's forces. Monmouth was declared inconclusive, but I will give you the benefit of the doubt on both of those. So what is it now 5 points?

This one is pretty much open field for everybody so now its just a matter of who posts first:

How long did the hundred year's war last?

I remember Monmouth now - I believe it was a Marginal British Victory, just due to the fact they made Green retreat- however, I believe that the casulties make it marginal for Britian.

Also, I'll go with my word on who won at White Plains, although they should've taken out Washington there...

And it's 6 now

This one is pretty much open field for everybody so now its just a matter of who posts first:
