Man, you must have gone to public schools or something.
Here’s a little timeline:
American Revolution: 1775 to 1783.
Statue of Liberty: 1886 — about 100 years later.
The two have nothing to do with each other WRT to France. In that century, the French crown had been literally beheaded, they had gone through the self-convulsion of the revolutionaries, then Napoleon and were just coming out of the Franco-Prussian war. The only thing that France in the 1880’s had in common with France of the American Revolution is geography and the language. Other than that, we were dealing with two completely different countries.
So you figured out that a statue commemorating the centennial of the signing of the United States Declaration of Independence, representing the friendship between France and America that was formed during the American Revolution, happened about 100 years later? Really? A centennial gift given 100 years later? Great research there, Einstein. Us folks who done gone to da publik skool are lucky to have folks like u around.
The two have nothing to do with each other
Yeah, a statue commemorating our independence from British rule, which just happens to be called the Statue of Liberty, given by a country sympathetic to our struggle from British tyranny, have nothing to do with one another. If I haddn't done gone to publik skool i'd be smart lyke u and knowed dat.
