=__Struggles in the South..... (Americans)__=

===Early American won battles in the South. In 1776 they crushed Loyalists at the battke or Moore's Creek, near Wilmington, North Carolina and saved Charlestown from the British. British planned strong attacks to finish off the war. They hoped for better strategy, navy, and efforts.(In my opinion, the Americans did a good job at attacking. But the British wanted to end it, so they tried hard, hoping for alot of their plans)===

=__﻿Patriot victories.....__=

===﻿British moved after winning through the Carolina's in September 1780. At Kings Mountains. British officer and more than 1,000 Loyalists defended an outpost against an attack of the Patriots sharpshooters. Patriots attacked and forced the British to retreat. Patriots won and wanted to end the war. In October, 1780 Nathanael Greene replaced Gates as a commander of the Constitutional Forces. Greene split hes army into two. One section defeated British in Lowpens. So he put both the sections together again to fight but they retreated. But the British had tons of losses.(They British had tons of trouble, though the Americans retreaded, the British were the one that actually losed)===
