2. What was signing the Declaration of Independence really like for Ben and the others?

3. Was George Washington a good leader for our troops? Could we have won the war without him?

4. In what way was this Revolutionary War a "civil war?"

5. OK, so after we declared our independence, then what happened and what was Ben's role?

6. How did the Constitution come to be written? What was new about it and what was Ben's role?
