I think that part of the reason that the Revolutionary War is not portrayed as much is that because most of the battles were British victories. It’s kinda difficult to make a compelling story out of a struggle of preservation & endurance. Possible, but difficult.

Maybe part, but I think it’s mostly the domination of the “Civil War”. Everything before that has pretty much been glossed over in history, never mind the wars themselves comparatively.
