The Continental Congress established the Secret Committee of Correspondence to publicize the American cause in Europe, particularly in France. Benjamin Franklin, a well-known figure in Europe, was sent to Paris to negotiate with the French government. His celebrity status and diplomatic skills were instrumental in securing French assistance. While France was eager to see Britain weakened, King Louis XVI was initially hesitant about formally recognizing the American rebellion due to concerns about the potential impact on his own monarchy. Before a formal alliance, France provided covert support, including arms and supplies, through figures like Pierre Beaumarchais. The Treaty of Alliance, signed in 1778, formalized the Franco-American alliance, committing both nations to mutual defense and providing crucial military and financial aid to the Americans. France committed significant resources to the American Revolution, including warships, soldiers, and financial aid. French naval support and troops, particularly at the Battle of Yorktown, were critical to the American victory. The French alliance and support were vital to the American victory in the Revolutionary War.

Where did my post mention violence, or call for it? Is that the only form of govt change you recognise, Jan 6 style? Some 250 years ago you overthrow a mad king, seems things have gone full circle. I will not stoop to your level and finish with some weird comment about mommy and twinkle. Very strange.
