Broaden historical narratives of the Revolutionary War by using the Quizstory: Spanish Friendship Teacher Guide!
Quizstory: Spanish Friendship is an educational mobile application whose main objective is to tell the little-known history of Hispanic contributions to the American Revolutionary War. Through different levels, missions, and quizzes, players will tour the cities central to Spain’s support, answering questions about each hidden historical episode, and, finally, unveiling the fundamental role that Spain and thousands of Hispanic soldiers played in the independence and establishment of the United States of America.
Most textbooks highlight the significant aid and support France provided during the American War of Independence. However, very little is said about the role that Spain played in it. Actually, the number of Spanish soldiers fighting in the American War of Independence was as significant as the number of French soldiers. Spain played a crucial role in the independence of the United States, as part of its global conflict with Britain.
Today, millions of North Americans, Hispanics and Latinos, are the descendants of both Spaniards from Europe and Spanish-Americans born in the immense territories of Spain’s administration in the Americas, which included large portions of what is today the United States. They fought by land and sea and offered their decisive contribution to the independence and establishment of our country.
