So what Rush means is that, while they've won the war for independence, actual change is really only just beginning.

It was the American Revolution. It began with the Stamp Act and progressed to the Intolerable Acts, the Boston Tea Party and the Boston Massacre. It was the war that made America its own country, separate from Great Britain.

There were many different revolutions taking place. The US was growing in several directions culturally, economically, and politically. Culturally, the emergence of a different style of language and literature contributed to the new nation. Economically, banks were failing as the "infant industries" were fighting against England's exports. Politically, the creation of a new government cause many internal struggles.

I don't know exactly but I know that it wasn't the American Revolution(i dont think) It was going on in 1776 and I don't think it was still going on in 1815.
