1. Difficulty of having colonies on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean is to the British Rule as house arrest it to a criminal. You are not allowed to go within a certain feet from your house and that's how the British were feeling because they could not cross the Atlantic ocean. 2. French and Indian War is to the French and the Indians as the the war in Iraq is to Americans and Iranians. In both wars they are fighting to defend their country and hopefully win. 3. The line that King George drew is to the Proclamation of 1763 as my little sister is to creating an imaginary line in our bedroom. The Colonists could not cross the line and go into the Indian Territory and i cannot cross the line my sister made in our bedroom. 4. Stamp Act is to the British as paying a fine for everytime you leave your house is to you parents. The stamp act made people pay a fine for everytime they sent a letter or package and that would be like having to pay a fine for everytime you left your house, it's just ridiculous. 5. Quartering Act is to the British as the Taliban is to the Muslim terrorists. The soldiers went into the colonists houses as they pleased and thats exactly what the Taliban does, they come and go as they please. 6. Taxation without Representation is to the British as the new dress code is to Ms. Wright. The colonists didn't have a say as what could be taxed and what could not be taxed. That's just like what Ms. Wright is doing with the new dress code, we have no say in what we can wear. They pretty much choose it all. 7. Samuel Admas is to the Sons of Liberty as Barack Obama is to the United States. Samuel Admas was the leader of the Sons of Liberty and controlled the group. Barack Obama is the leader of the United States and controls out country. 8. Crispus Attucks is to Boston Massacre as Michael Boyle is to 9/11. Both died in a very sad event, Crispus Attucks died in the boston massacre and Micheal Boyle died on 9/11 when the terriots knocked down the twin towers. 9. The colonists are to the Boston Tea Party as and herd of elephants is to a house made of glass. The colonists destroyed all the tea on the boat and if you put a herd of elephants in a glass house everything would end up broken. 10. "The Redcoats are coming!" is to 'The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere' as a "The teacher is coming!" is to a student. Paul Revere ran through the town warning the colonists that the Redcoats were coming so all the colonists got prepared for a battle to start. If the children in a classroom are all talking in the room when the teacher isn't there, there is usually one student who will yell "The teacher is coming!" and all the students will shut their mouths. 11. The Shot Heard Round The World is to an anonymous person and the murder committed at Yale University in 1998 is to an unknown identity. Both are mysteries, we don't know who committed them. 12. Freeing the Colonists is to the Declaration of Independence as freeing players in jail is to capture the flag. The Delaration of Independence decalred that the colonists had freedom and in the game capture the flag the players are let out of jail when someone from the other team yells for them to get out and then they have the freedom to play the game. 13. General George Washington crossing the Delaware River is to the Battle of Trenton as the Japanese is to Pearl Harbor. Both the Japenese and General George Washington took a huge risk. 14.Hessians are like ninjas because they are sly, sneeky, and and really good at fighting pretty much anyone. 15. Battle of Saratoga is to British General Sir William Howe as the Battle of Trenton is to General George Washington. Both led their army into a famous battle where many people were injured but the battles went down in history. 16. Battle of Yorktown is like finishing up a hard test. You think "I'm finally done!" 17. Treaty of Paris is like creating peace with someone you don't like or someone you just got in a fight with. After the fight you just want to be friends again so you make up and have peace.
