The American Revolution’s democratic and republican ideals inspired new experiments with different forms of government. The ideals that inspired the revolutionary cause reflected new beliefs about politics, religion, and society that had been developing over the course of the 18th century.
a. Enlightenment ideas and philosophy inspired many American political thinkers to emphasize individual talent over
hereditary privilege, while religion strengthened Americans’ view of themselves as a people blessed with liberty.
b. The colonists’ belief in the superiority of republican forms of government based on the natural rights of the people found expression in Thomas Paine’s Common Sense and the Declaration of Independence. The ideas in these documents resonated throughout American history, shaping Americans’ understanding of the ideals on which the nation was based.
c. During and after the American Revolution, increased awareness of inequalities in society motivated some individuals and groups to call for the abolition of slavery and greater political democracy in the new state and national governments.
d. In response to women’s participation in the American Revolution, Enlightenment ideas, and women’s appeals for expanded roles, an idea of "republican motherhood" gained popularity. It called on women to teach republican values within the family and granted women a new importance in American political culture.
e. The American Revolution and the ideals set forth in the Declaration of Independence reverberated in France, Haiti, and Latin America, inspiring future independence movements
