Answer 3

To summarize, and you can build from there> Life in the colonies was about living, day to day efforts to build homes, schools families, friendships, etc. The Revolution was about the preservation of that right and the creation of a government separate from the Monarchy in England.

Answer 4

Daily life is concerned with its own difficulties and even these would be different depending on which region you would have lived in.

The Revolution could be viewed separetly as a moral and ethical issue. That issue being, of course, the unalienable rights of the people.
