It’s not that we think we’re better than everyone else it’s that we know we are.

I'm black and most British territories didn't outlaw slavery until the next centruy so no thanks...
Agreed, it wasn't soon enough, but they did abolish it thirty years before the US fought a war to get it done.

You had a bed? Such luxuries, we had to sleep in the turnip fields while they were being ploughed.

Ok so here's the thing: If America lost the war, America would likely be akin to Australia. The UK used it's North American colonies like they did Australia (that is, a place to transport convicts) so you'd basically be like Australia in that regard. You'd likely be like...cold weather Aussies.
Also:
- Australia would be...different? Maybe Dutch?
- We might not have had a French Revolution, or it may have been different, because a lot of the ideas from the American Revolution inspired the French Revolution.
- Since the French Revolution have rise to the idea of the modern nation state and Napoleon, we'd not have a lot of countries.

To be blunt, I can't think of a better reason to go to war than to eliminate slavers and those that would regard an entire race of people as not worthy of respect.
The only other good reason for war is for defense. To protect yourself and your countrymen from a hostile force, but I digress.
That shit should have never been allowed. But here we are.

I mean, am I wrong? France bankrupted itself in the war and in funding the American revolution. The American Revolution produced and popularised a lot of ideas that found their way to France and inspired ideas in the French Revolution (as well as a rebellion in Scotland but let's not get ahead of ourselves).
The French Revolution gave rise to the idea of the Modern Nation State and Napoleon's invasions of places like Italy and Germany implanted this idea in those places which eventually lead to the Nationalist revolutions in Germany and Italy in the 19th century.
If the American revolution failed, we'd might not have the French Revolution we know of today. If that is the case, there's no rise of the Nation State and no Napoleon to spread it, ergo, no Germany or Italy, as well as a lot of other countries.
