The 4th of July is coming up this weekend and most people think of independence and fireworks. Can you still remember why we had the American Revolution? What important rights did we fight for? What does independence really mean?

The Road to Revolution is a great game to refresh your memory on the meaning of independence. Test your skills. Do you still remember your fifth grade lessons on the American Revolution?

The game provides a lot of facts for history buffs. It is also perfect for middle school students who need a quick review. If you’re still nervous about all the facts, reading Chronicle of the Revolution before you begin the game will definitely give you an edge.

So, before going out to watch those fireworks, play the Road to Revolution and relearn the reasons to celebrate. Remember, history is not just boring dates and names. History is there to remind us of things we should not do.

“Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it” said George Santayana.
