What kind of America would we have had if Britain had won?

[Replies: 2]
It may seem unfathomable to some, but what kind of country would this had been if the Founding Fathers had lost the Revolution? Lets try these for "facts": George Washington would have never been 1st president of the US. He would have been tried and hanged along with Adams, Jefferson, and Franklin. There never would have been a Civil War in the US because slavery most likely would have been abolished. There never would have been a War of 1812, nor a Monroe Doctrine, Manifest Destiny, ect.

We would not have the Freedom of Speech. The British still have big issues with defamation and libel and will take you to court unlike being here in the states.
