The American Revolution is like an iPod touch


 * Difficulty of Britain having colonies on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean is like you trying to open up the safari app when there's no wi-fi so you have to walk all the way to a place that does have wi-fi; if the British wanted to tell their family something and they were across the ocean then they would have to travel all the way there to tell them.


 * The Indians are to the French and Indian War as people are to the iPod case. Some Indians were on the French side and others were on the English side just like some people think the case is for fashion and others think it's for protection. In other words, the Indians saw the war in two different sides like people see the use for a case in two different ways.


 * The Proclamation of 1763 is to the French and Indian War as a picture is to the camera, because the Proclamation of 1763, which basically drew a line between French and English territory, was the outcome of the French and Indian War and the outcome of using a camera is that you get a picture.


 * Stamps are to the Stamp Act as memory is to an iPod because without any memory on your iPod you wouldn't be able to get anything and during the Stamp Act if you didn't get a letter stamped then you wouldn't be able to do anything with it because you can't send it.


 * The British are to Taxation without Representation as iTunes is to songs. The British made everyone pay taxes just like iTunes makes you pay for music on your iPod.


 * Samuel Adams is to the Sons of Liberty as Steve Job is to Apple. Samuel Adams was the founder of the Sons of Liberty and Steve Job was the founder of Apple.


 * The Boston Tea Party is like the "delete" button, it destroys things, like the colonists destroyed all the tea.


 * The Shot Heard Round the World is like the "play" button that starts the song and the Shot Heard Round the World was the start of the Revolutionary War.


 * Independence is to The Declaration of Independence as function is to the operating system. You get independence from The Declaration of Independence and you get your iPod to function from the operating system.


 * The Battle of Trenton is like the screen protector, it protects the screen from scratches just like George Washington's army protected themselves from injuries and from doing that they won.
