This overview highlights significant figures from the American Revolution, contrasting patriots and loyalists. King George III, the British ruler, imposed numerous taxes on the colonists, which fueled dissent. Major patriots include George Washington, the Continental Army commander; John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, key authors of the Declaration of Independence; Patrick Henry, famous for his "Give me liberty!" speech; Benjamin Franklin, the diplomat to France; and Paul Revere, known for his midnight ride warning of British movements. Lord Cornwallis represents the loyalist perspective, famously defeated at Yorktown.
