Explain why many historical experts believe the American Revolution wasn’t technically a revolution.

King George III was not directly overthrown, and the Revolutionary War didn’t result in drastic political or economic change in America or in Britain. The best explanation for this is to describe the American Revolution as a “conservative revolution” in which not much physical or immediate change occurred, with the exception of the Colonies gaining their independence and ability to make their own governmental decisions and the right to be recognized as a sovereign nation independent of Britain.
