"I first caught sight of the Emperor and was struck by the size of the man, and although cumbersome and heavy, he was still a mighty figure. The look of his bright eyes made quite an impression on me. As he passed where I was standing he raised his head for a second and to this day I can remember what it felt as our eyes met. It was a look as cold as steel, in which there was something threatening, almost frightening, and it struck me like a blow." - French artist Alexandre Benois, on meeting Alexander Ill (Memoirs)

After his father's assassination in 1881, Alexander III assumed the title of Tsar and began his 13-year reign, which was characterized by fierce, autocratic rule. Although he stabilized the government and enjoyed peace with neighboring Europe and Asia, he did so at the expense of the working class and peasantry, crushing liberal opposition, sending thousands of political dissidents into Siberian exile, and abolishing the free press. He was known to be an imposing, brutish figure with formidable physical strength and an iron will.

In late October of 1888, Alexander and his family were aboard the Imperial Train en route to St-Petersburg from Crimea. While the family was eating in the dining car, the train derailed at high speed and crashed near Borki station. According to the official version of events, Alexander held the collapsed roof of the ruined car on his shoulders while his children clambered from the wreckage. Investigations into the cause of the crash have yielded inconclusive results.

Welcome to Echoes of Revolution: Boston
The Tunguska event, or Tunguska blast, or Tunguska explosion, was an enormously powerful explosion that occurred near the Podkamennaya Tunguska River in what is now Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia, at about 7:14 a.m. KRAT (0:14 UT) on June 30 (OS. June 17), 1908.


The explosion is believed to have been caused by the air burst of a large meteoroid or comet fragment at an altitude of 5-10 kilometres (3-6 mi) above the Earth's surface. Different studies have yielded varying estimates of the object's size, with general agreement that it was a few tens of metres across.

"At breakfast time I was sitting by the house at Vanavara Trading Post ,40 miles south of the explosion, facing north. I suddenly saw that directly to the north, over Onkoul's Tunguska Road, the sky split in two and fire appeared high and wide over the forest. The split in the sky grew larger, and the entire northern side was covered with fire. At that moment I became so hot that I couldn't bear it, as if my shirt was on fire; from the northern side, where the fire was, came strong heat. I wanted to tear off my shirt and throw it down, but then the sky shut closed, and a strong thump sounded, and I was thrown a few metres.” - Testimony of S. Semenov, as recorded by Leonid Kulik's expedition in 1930.

Nikola Tesla (10 July 1856 — 7 January 1943) was an inventor, mechanical engineer, and electrical engineer. He was an important contributor to the birth of commercial electricity, and is best known for his many revolutionary developments in the field of electromagnetism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Because of his 1894 demonstration of wireless communication through radio and as the eventual victor in the War of Currents, he was widely respected as one of the greatest electrical engineers who worked in America. Tesla demonstrated wireless energy transfer to power electronic devices as early as 1893, and aspired to intercontinental wireless transmission of industrial power in his unfinished Wardenclyffe Tower project.

Because of his eccentric personality and his seemingly unbelievable and sometimes bizarre claims about possible scientific and technological developments, Tesla was ultimately ostracized and regarded as a mad scientist by many late in his life.

The Palmer Raids were attempts by the United States Department of Justice to arrest and deport radical leftists, especially anarchists, from the United States. The raids and arrests occurred in November 1919 and January 1920 under the leadership of Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer. Though more than 500 foreign citizens were deported, including a number of prominent leftist leaders, Palmer's efforts were largely frustrated by officials at the U.S. Department of Labor who had responsibility for deportations and who objected to Palmer's methods. The Palmer Raids occurred in the larger context of the Red Scare, the term given to fear of and reaction against political radicals in the U.S. in the years immediately following World War I.

At 9 pm on November 7, 1919, a date chosen because it was-the second anniversary of the Bolshevik revolution, agents of the Bureau of Investigation, together with local police, executed a series of well-publicized and violent raids against the Russian Workers in 12 cities. Newspaper accounts reported some were "badly beaten” during the arrests. Many later swore they were threatened and beaten during questioning. Government agents cast a wide net, bringing in some American citizens, passers-by who admitted being Russian, some not members of the Russian Workers. Others were teachers conducting night school, classes in space shared with the targeted radical group. Arrests far exceeded the number of warrants. Of 650 arrested in New York City, the government managed to have just 43 deported.

Rangit Singh (13 November 1780 - 27 June 1839) founded the Sikh Empire, which extended across the Punjab region to the northwest of India from 1799 to 1849.


He was the son of a small faction leader at the head of a misl, one of numerous entities comprising the region at that time. During childhood, he suffered from smallpox which resulted in the loss of one eye. He succeeded his father at the age of twelve.

During the summer of 1799, Ranjit Singh conquered the misl of Lahore, the economic — capital of the region, with the ensuing expansion leading to his being crowned Maharajah of Punjab at twenty years of age. He then launched an attack on the Afghans, acquiring many territories where Islam was the predominant religion.
</tabber>


Although some of their conquests were violent, the Sikh Empire proved to be very progressive and open-minded for the times. All religions were freely allowed there, and the very rigid Hindu system of social castes did not apply in the Sikh religion, in which all men were considered equal. With the annexation of Kashmir to the north and Sindh to the south, Muslims represented more than 70% of subjects in the Sikh Empire.
;People of the Revolution
<tabber>
|-|John Adams=
John Adams was a foundational figure of the American Revolution. A Harvard-educated lawyer from Massachusetts, Adams rose to prominence by opposing the 1765 Stamp Act, serving as a delegate to the First and Second Continental Congresses, and working to build the newly formed American navy.


Wanting to have his memory live on in the Sikh religion, Ranjit Singh ordered the sacred temple of Harmandir Sahib to be adorned. He had marble installed there, and had the exterior covered entirely in gold leaf. From then on, the western world referred to the sacred center of the Sikh religion and culture as the “Golden Temple”.
While sympathetic to the patriot cause, his belief in the rule of law led him to successfully defend British soldiers involved in the 1770 Boston Massacre. In Congress, he was instrumental in persuading delegates to declare independence, nominating George Washington as commander of the Continental Army, and playing a key role in drafting the Declaration of Independence in 1776. Later, he was central in negotiating the 1783 Treaty of Paris, which officially ended the Revolutionary War. Adams later authored the 1780 Massachusetts Constitution, influencing the future U.S. Constitution. He served as the first vice president under Washington and as the second president of the United States.


Even today, Ranjit Singh is venerated by Sikhs across the entire world as one of the great heroes of their culture. A bronze statue approximately seven meters high (22 feet) representing Maharajah Singh was unveiled in the vicinity of the Indian Parliament in August 2003.
|-|Samuel Adams=
Born in Boston, Samuel Adams was a pivotal Founding Father, political philosopher, and civic leader who galvanized colonial resistance against British authority. He strongly opposed the Stamp Act and other parliamentary taxation measures, leading to his involvement in the formation and operation of the Sons of Liberty in Boston. During the 1760s and 1770s he coordinated anti-British activities both within Boston and across the colonies, including the Boston Tea Party.<br><br>As a delegate to the Continental Congress, Adams was a firm advocate for separating from Britain, signing the Declaration of Independence in 1776. He was also involved in drafting the Articles of Confederation and, after the war, served as governor of Massachusetts.

|-|Crispus Attucks=
The Koh-i-Noor is a 105-carat diamond. Almost certainly one of the most desirable gems on the planet, it has passed through the hands of many dynasties on the Indian subcontinent. There are some who believe the diamond to be the fabled Syamantaka Mani, perhaps the most famous jewel in Hindu mythology, supposed to be blessed with magical powers.
Crispus Attucks was one of the first casualties of the American Revolution. As an escaped slave working as a sailor and dock worker in Boston, he became a protest leader and the first victim of the Boston Massacre. During the confrontation with British soldiers on King Street, Attucks stood at the forefront of a crowd, demanding that the soldiers leave. When the soldiers opened fire, Attucks was shot twice in the chest, dying instantly.<br><br>Although his death was used as political propaganda to fuel anti-British sentiment during the period, his status as a martyr was cemented by 19th-century abolitionists who highlighted his sacrifice as a testament to Black patriotism.


In 1850, the diamond was confiscated from the Sikh Empire by the British East India Company and became part of the British Crown Jewels when Queen Victoria was proclaimed Empress of India in 1877. The diamond is currently set into the Crown of Queen Elizabeth and is on display at the Tower of London.
|-|Benjamin Franklin=
Benjamin Franklin was one of the Founding Fathers. A seasoned diplomat in London, he initially opposed the Stamp Act and, upon returning to America, he helped draft the Declaration of Independence in 1776. One of his most significant contributions to the Revolution was serving as the primary American envoy to France from 1776 to 1778. Using his fame as a scientist and diplomatic expertise, he secured essential French financial and military support. This support is widely regarded as being instrumental in turning the tide of the war.<br><br>Franklin is the only Founding Father to sign all three major documents establishing the United States: the Declaration of Independence (1776), the Treaty of Paris ending the war (1783), and the U.S. Constitution (1787).


It is believed that the Koh-i-Noor carries with it a curse which affects men who wear it, but not women. All the men who owned it have either lost their throne or had other misfortunes befall them. Queen Victoria is the first reigning monarch to have worn the gem. Since Victoria's reign, the stone has generally been worn by the Queen Consort, never by a male ruler.
|-|John Hancock=
John Hancock was an American merchant, statesman, and prominent Patriot leader during the American Revolution. Inheriting a massive fortune from his uncle, Hancock became one of New England’s wealthiest men and used this wealth and influence to oppose British taxation policies. His defiance made him popular in Boston, particularly after customs officials seized his ship, the Liberty, in 1768 on charges of smuggling.<br><br>Hancock served as the President of the Second Continental Congress from 1775 to 1777, and after the war, he served as the first and third Governor of Massachusetts. He is best known for being the first person to sign the Declaration of Independence in 1776, doing so with a large, bold signature to defy King George III.


;Amritsar
|-|Thomas Jefferson=
Situated in the northwest of India in the Punjabi state, Amritsar is the spiritual center of the Sikh community. The city owes its name to the sacred pool constructed in 1573 by Ram Das, the fourth ranked guru in Sikhism. In 1588 his successor Guru Arjan ordered the construction of a sacred place at the same location where Guru Nanak, the very first guru, would go to meditate. The Harmandir Sahib, known in the western world as the “Golden Temple”, was completed in 1604. Guru Arjan had the manuscript of his commandments installed there. His writings today are the basis of the Sikh faith, which considers this book as the words of its last living guru.
Thomas Jefferson was a pivotal figure in the American Revolution, acting as a leading intellectual, a political activist, and the primary author of the Declaration of Independence. Throughout the conflict, while he did not fight on the battlefield, he sought to transform the American colonies into a modern republic, advocating for the separation of church and state, the abolition of feudal inheritance laws, and widespread educational reform. As a delegate to the Second Continental Congress in 1776, the 33-year-old Virginian was tasked with drafting the document that justified the colonies’ break from Great Britain, articulating the foundational American ideals of ''"Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness"''.


In 1801, Ranjit Singh was crowned Maharajah of Punjab, subsequently creating the Sikh Empire. During his reign, Amritsar became the region's capital.
|-|Marquis de Lafayette=
Marquis de Lafayette was a French aristocrat and military officer who played a crucial role in the American Revolution, acting as a vital link between the American colonies and France. Inspired by the American cause of liberty, the 19-year-old defied King Louis XVI and traveled to America in 1777, volunteering to serve without pay.<br><br>He quickly formed a close bond with George Washington and was commissioned as a major general in the Continental Army. Lafayette proved his bravery and skill in battle and was wounded in action. This led him to return to France and lobby for increased military aid, successfully securing French troops and supplies for the colonies. Returning to America in 1781, he led American forces against Lord Cornwallis in Virginia, setting the stage for the decisive American-French victory at the Siege of Yorktown.<br><br>After returning to France after the war, Lafayette remained a lifelong friend of the United States and was granted honorary U.S. citizenship in 2002.


==Assassins==
|-|Paul Revere=
===2===
Paul Revere was a prominent Boston silversmith, industrialist, and dedicated Patriot. A leading member of the Sons of Liberty, Revere organized intelligence networks to monitor British troops and co-originated anti-British agitation, including taking part in the 1773 Boston Tea Party. During the war, Revere served in the Massachusetts Militia and manufactured gunpowder for the Continental Army.<br><br>He is most well known for his dramatic midnight ride on April 18, 1775, to warn colonists of advancing British forces. Following instructions, a ''"one if by land, two if by sea"'' signal was placed in the Old North Church, alerting Revere to the British route across the Charles River. Along with William Dawes and others, Revere spread the alarm from Boston to Lexington, enabling leaders John Hancock and Samuel Adams to escape and allowing militiamen to prepare for the crucial battles of Lexington and Concord. Though captured by a British patrol shortly after his ride, his mission was successful. This was later immortalized in Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s 1861 poem, ''"Paul Revere's Ride"'' transforming him into a lasting symbol of American independence and civic bravery.
;Salem
In 1692, a quiet puritan colony was the setting for disturbing events that would echo down the ages...


In 1626, a small group of Puritans founded the town Salem on the mouth of the Naumkeag river. They obtained a charter from the British monarchy that gave them the right of free rule so they could practice their Puritan beliefs free from the interference of the Church of England. It was that charter that created the perfect conditions for the horrors to come...
|-|Joseph Warren=
Joseph Warren was a Founding Father of the United States and a central leader in the Patriot movement in Boston during the early American Revolution. A respected physician and member of the Sons of Liberty, Warren became a key political organizer. He often acted as a master spy, utilizing his intelligence network to stay ahead of British movements. Notably, on April 18, 1775, it was Warren who dispatched Paul Revere and William Dawes on their famous midnight ride to warn John Hancock and Samuel Adams of the British march toward Lexington and Concord.<br><br>Despite having little formal military training, Warren was later appointed a major general and showed immense courage by volunteering as a private soldier in the Battle of Bunker Hill on June 17, 1775, where he was killed in action at age 34.


The map of Salem and the surrounding areas, created by W.P. Upnam in 1866, shows the location of the important landmarks and villages of the time and sets the scene for the events that unfolded. It also demonstrates the enduring fascination Salem and the Witch Trials have held for researchers, cartographers, writers and artists down the ages. The Victorian era produced much of the research and data that informs historians today.
|-|George Washington=
George Washington was the commander-in-chief of the Continental Army during the American Revolution. Tasked with fighting a superior British force, Washington formed the colonial militias into a disciplined fighting force. Despite losing more battles than he won, his resilience, strategic retreats, and crucial victories, such as the final victory at Yorktown, secured American independence.<br><br>Unanimously elected, Washington served as president from 1789 to 1797, where he implemented a strong, well-financed national government, including the creation of a national bank. His dedication to civilian control of the military, together with his voluntary retirement after two terms, helped secure the stability of American democracy.

;Historical details
;Salem
At the start of the American Revolution, the Royal Navy faced little opposition from the fledgling American Navy. Several colonies maintained small state navies, and in 1775 Congress authorized the creation of a Continental Navy. These forces amounted to only several dozen small vessels and a handful of frigates.\n\nOne particularly notable American naval officer of the Revolutionary War was John Paul Jones. Among several victories he was responsible for the capture of the Royal Navy frigate Serapis. He came to be regarded as the father of the American Navy due to his advocacy for and training of American Naval officers.

The Green Dragon Tavern was a popular meeting place for the Sons of Liberty, a clandestine group of Revolutionaries who worked for America's independence. Their work was kept secret through a network of supporters and through a range of spy craft during the revolution, from coded lantern signals to invisible ink and complex ciphers. \n \nAmong the most notable ciphers of the era was that developed by James Lovell, though it frequently failed in practice. Lovell's hints at the keyword were often so obscure as to be useless, as this instruction to John Adams illustrates: \"You certainly can recollect the name of that family where you and I spent our last evening together... Make regular alphabets in number equal to the first sixth part of that family name.\" Adams struggled so persistently with the cipher that he once accused Benjamin Franklin of deliberately withholding information, having simply failed to decode his letter.

Quila is a chasqui, a courier used to carry messages across the Inca empire. Not only were they incredibly strong runners, chasqui were trained to read and decipher the Quipu, or knotted ropes, and pass on the message it held. The Chasqui could, and often would, run up to 240km a day, and so had to be agile and physically very fit.


The chasqui ran along a vast network of purpose built roads and rope bridges that spanned the Inca empire, which at its height was two million square kilometers. There were stopping points called ''tambos'' which were used as relay stations for the chasqui to pass the message on to the next runner.

As war broke out between the American colonies and Great Britain, the Americans were forced to adjust and evolve their military. This was previously defined by informal militia but as events around Boston became more tense, many communities in Massachusetts began to create more elite regiments. \n\nTheir regiments trained more frequently and were expected to be ready quickly, “at a minute’s warning...” They became known as “Minute Men.” These regiments were made of men from all economic and racial backgrounds and formed the backbone of the Revolutionary forces.\n
The complex society of the "New World" that was founded on efficent communication...


''Quipus'', sometimes also called 'talking knots', were the main method of recording data and communication for the tribes of the Andean area of South America. They took the form of strings of knotted cord, with different colored threads and numbers and positions of knots denoting different information. The name comes from the word for 'knot' in Cusco Quechua, which was the native Inca language. They appear to have been most usually made from cotton or camelid fibres (fashioned from the coats of Llamas and Alpacas, and very similar to wool). The threads often resembled a string mop once all gathered together, and a quipu could have just a few, or several hundred, of threads. Evidence suggests that the threads might sometimes be attached to a carved wooden stick in order to give them more structure, and make them easier for the chasquis to carry.
;Instructions
Objective
Colonel Bigelow commanded the Massachusetts Militia camped here. You need to collect your gear from around the camp.


The quipu remains a mysterious artefact. Very few survived the Spanish conquest, though the earliest known quipus are thought to date from the first millennia AD. They were a crucial part of the success of the Inca Empire, which dominated the Andean region from around 1100 AD until it fell to the Spanish in 1532. It was then that the quipu was replaced by the European writing system, although archaeologists believe that quipus took on a more ritualistic position in society. Many of those that remained were stored in mausoleums alongside those who perished in the Spanish attacks.
Needed gear
Check the notice board or tap the icon to see the full list of gear you need to find.


The majority of the information relayed in quipus appears to take the form of numbers, recorded in a decimal system. To date, no direct link has been found between the Quechua language and the configuration of the knots and threads on the quipus. There are a number of creditable theories regarding how the information in a quipu can be deciphered, but so far it appears that as a "writing" system, the quipu is unique in being the only known example of a complex language being recorded and transmitted in a three dimensional format.
Collection
Explore the camp and keep an eye out for highlighted objects. \n\nWhen you're close enough to a piece of gear, it will light up. Tap it to collect it.


The "reading" of a quipu relies on understanding the differing configurations of knots. Analysis has already established the numerical links between the three types of knots displayed in quipu, demonstrating the quipu use in accounting systems most effectively. However, it is also suggested that locations and people were recorded using "numbers", or knots, much Like a zip code, but also using different colors of thread or material used to make that thread. Research continues into deciphering exactly how the quipus were able to relay so much information. The surviving quipus, of which there are estimated to be in the region of 700 across the globe, are preserved in the same ways as most delicate of fabrics. While some are now so fragile that touching them would reduce them to dust, others are more robust and can be handled, to better aid the decryption of the messages they hold.

For the Incans, the quipu were read by ''Quipucamayocs'', a specific class of Inca society. They were the accountants and record keepers, and were able to provide the invading Spanish with highly detailed census information about the Empire when it fell. Quipucamayocs were taught the necessary skills along with other high ranking members of the society in the ''yacha-huasi'' (literally, "house of teaching") in what was essentially the third year of Inca university. But it was also the ''chasqui'', the carriers of the quipu, who could read them, as they would be trusted with vital additional information. It has been suggested that the system of knots and threads used is similar to musical notation, where the basic Information Is stored, but it is the perfomance of the reader that brings that information to life. Together, the quipu and chasqui made for one of the most efficient means of pre-industrial communication across large areas.

**Soldiers' blankets were mostly made of wool, linen, or the mixed cloth linsey-woolsey, and came in a variety of colors and patterns. There was no official provision of blankets, and most were donated from people's own homes.

**A canteen - made of wood, tin, or glass - was vital for militia soldiers to carry water on the march. With a typical day's march covering 8 to 13 miles and a canteen holding just 1.4 liters, a soldier had to make that supply last the entire day unless he found a chance to refill it.

**Perhaps one of the most iconic and easily recognized pieces of clothing from the colonial era is the tri-corner hat, or more simply known as the tricorn. Although the style originated in Europe, it is now associated with the American Revolutionary War and the nation's fight for freedom.
*Powder Horns
**A militia soldier needed two powder horns: a large one, for the coarse powder used in the main charge in the musket, and a small one, to hold the more finely ground powder that was used in the priming pan. These were made from real horns that were often obtained from domestic cattle.
*Musket
**The most common weapon used during the American Revolution was the musket - a long smoothbore gun without grooves inside its barrel, fired from the shoulder. These weapons were slow, complicated to load and extremely inaccurate, and were normally only fired in volleys.
*Sword
**During the Revolutionary War, most infantrymen carried a hanger as a secondary weapon, a type of short sword with a blade about twenty-five inches long, designed to supplement their musket in close combat. This sword is based on the one carried by Massachusetts minute man James Taylor.
*Worm
**‘The Worm' was the name given to a corkscrew-shaped piece of metal which was used to extract any residual debris from the barrel of the soldier's musket when cleaning it. Every soldier had to carry one in order to keep the musket ready to use.

;Inca Empire
The Inca perspective on class, marriage, and the lives of the "chosen women"...


Inca society was well-organized and complex, with a defined class system in place that allowed for little social mobility. The majority of the population was made up of the peasant classes, with a small, educated middle class, and a ruling aristocracy. Like most societies at the time, and indeed, now, It was patriarchal in its construct, though that did not mean that women were not crucial to the overall success of the Empire.
;Outcome
*READY FOR DUTY

Girls were considered to have come of age at around 14 years old, and were normally married at the age of 16. For boys, they were required to swear an oath of loyalty to the Sapa-Inca, the Emperor, when they turned 15. They did not tend to marry until they were 20 years old. Polygamy was common, and encouraged, among the upper classes, but monogamy was the norm for the peasant class. Emperor Manco, however, only had the one wife and consort, Cura Ocllo, his sister and the mother of his child.

An Inca wedding was by no means a joyous affair. Marriages were generally arranged, and took the form of an economic transaction between two families, rather than a romantic union. The strict caste structure meant that it was Incredibly rare for an aristocrat to marry someone of lower birth, and vice versa. The actual wedding ceremony between an Inca man and woman took the form of a solemn exchange. Once the decision to marry had been reached, often with the involvement of multiple community elders, the man would visit the home of the young woman and place on her right foot a sandal — though some sources counter that the ceremony was completed only once the couple had exchanged the sandals they were both wearing. These differing accounts both still suggest that the Inca placed a great deal of significance on what appears, to modern minds, to be a willingness to walk in each other's footsteps.

The bride would, in turn, give him a number of gifts, including a headband, pin, and a woolen shirt. Once "wed", the couple would begin a life together in a newly built house provided by the groom and his family. However, the Inca society allowed for, and recognized the benefit of, trial marriages. During the trial marriage, the couple in question would live as husband and wife for one, possibly two years, before deciding If they would Like to continue the arrangement. If they chose not to, the woman would return to her parents house and the marriage was effectively dissolved.
;Historical details
Paul Revere was a Revolutionary soldier and express rider who transported important documents and messages during the war. \n \nOn the night of April 18th, 1775, in response to a coded message delivered by the light of two lanterns in the tower of Old North church, he undertook a perilous ride to Lexington with the news that the British soldiers stationed in Boston were about to march. The successful raising of the alarm proved pivotal, allowing the Revolutionary forces to prepare and to their subsequent victory at the battles at Lexington and Concord.


While men strictly controlled the running of the empire, the contribution of women was invaluable to its prolonged prosperity, though they may not have been given the status that would suggest as much. Women were traditionally responsible for weaving, and for brewing chicha, the beer made from maize, one of the primary Inca crops. Weaving, In particular, was a prized skill, and accommodations were made within the structure of the society to ensure that it remained so. The acllahausi, literally  "House of Women", developed in the Inca Empire between 1438 and 1532. Every town had one of these houses, and they were homes to the "Chosen Women". Every year, a government official would assess the attractiveness of the ten-year-old girls in a town, and the most beautiful would be admitted to the acllahausi, where they would become servants of the state. Before entering the house, they would be taken to the capital, Cuzco, and given an education. The most attractive were reserved for sacrifice, while the others learned trades, such as spinning or brewing.
;Instructions
Objective
Joseph Warren and other revolutionary spies would send covert messages using the light and shadows cast by lanterns.  


After fours years in the capital, the girls would either be assigned as concubines to men the ruler wished to honor, or would enter the acllahausi as permanent residents. Generally speaking, noble women who were assigned this life took on more administrative tasks within the house, while lower class women performed the more laborious work. This was the one means by which a lower class woman could change her status in life, as it allowed the possibility of becoming the consort of a wealthy influential man. However, once a woman entered the acllahausi, she was expected to remain chaste for the rest of her life. If this were found not to be the case, then the woman and her lover would both be buried alive. A brutal punishment, but very much in keeping with the harsh realities of life in the Inca Empire.

The incredible success of the Inca Empire more is difficult to understand in modern terms. It established itself, and was destroyed, ina little over a hundred years.

The success of the empire relied on the symbiotic relationship between the laboring and elite classes. The Andean mountain range the empire spanned was subject to a variety of natural disasters, situated as it was within the Pacific "Ring of Fire". Volcanic and tectonic disturbances were regular occurrences, and while the Inca government could mitigate for the damage to some extent - thanks to their well-stocked storehouses and practice of redistributing resources in times of strife - an excellent example of centrally controlled disaster relief in a pre-Industrial society - they could not explain the disasters that befell them, nor go any ways toward mitigating against future calamity. And so, like many groups before, and after, them, they turned to religion, or at least, ritual. It is the ritual of human sacrifice In Inca society that has had the greatest impact and It is recorded as being called ''Qhapaq Hucha'', translated as "solemn sacrifice".
;Log
Under the guidance of Patriot Joseph Warren I learned how to send messages with lantern light in the tradition of Paul Revere.


The ceremonies of ''Qhapaq Hucha'' took place throughout the year, and are generally believed to commemorate a significant event in the life of the Sapa Inca, such as a birth, death, or illness, as well as his succession to the throne. They could also be undertaken In order to prevent natural disasters, or as a part of a major festival. They were complicated events requiring a high degree of organization, as offerings, both human and material, would be transported to the capital city of Cuzco, before they were then redistributed to the provinces in order for the rituals to take place. Archaeological evidence seems to suggest that the majority of ceremonies took place at high-altitude, such as on mountain tops, though some evidence of ceremonies has been found on the shores of Lake Titicaca. The Sapa Inca would perform the first sacrifice, with others taking place in each province at various important ''huaca'', religious sites, in order to ensure no corner of the empire was left without a sacrifice.

The prerequisites for being chosen as a sacrifice were that the child had to be unblemished, completely perfect, without even a freckle, and a virgin. Boys selected were generally under ten years old when they died. Girls could be older, but were normally under sixteen years old. Once selected, the boys were immediately taken to Cuzco, but the girls would often be sent to live in the ''acclahausi'', where  they would spend a few years learning to weave and sew, and could sometimes live out their days there, if they were not chosen to go onto become a sacrifice. If they were, however, they would travel to the capital as tributes, along with the offerings of silver, gold and other material goods. They were well looked after to ensure they reached the gods as happy as could be, and were paraded through the city dressed in the finest clothes, before being paired off, one boy, one girl, and killed. There were four primary methods of sacrifice; strangulation; suffocation; a blow to the head; or being buried alive. There is no archaeological evidence to suggest that the Inca removed the hearts of their sacrifices. However, the blood of the tributes would be used to decorate statues of idols.
;Historical details
Warfare during the Revolutionary war was defined by the musket. A complex weapon, it required loading by hand with powder, wadding, and ramrod - a slow process demanding extensive training to master. This training was also essential for developing the discipline and coordinated movement necessary for cohesion on the battlefield. \n\nThe musket's smooth, non-rifled barrel also made it highly inaccurate, meaning speed of fire mattered far more than precision. A well-trained British soldier could discharge four rounds a minute; most recruits, however, could manage only one or two, making rigorous training vital to the Revolutionary cause.


As the name "solemn sacrifice" suggests, it was a great honor to be chosen to give up your life for the Emperor, and the empire. Indeed, some of the sacrificial victims were Infants who were still being breastfed when they were sent to Cuzco - demonstrating just how highly-esteemed the ritual was in the society. It is hard to conceive of a nursing mother willingly offering her baby up to such a fate. The ritual was sealed with prayers to the Sun God, the Thunder God, to keep the Sapa Inca safe and fruitful, and protect his children from harm.

Members of the Massachusetts militia needed to learn how to use a musket by loading, aiming, and firing at the targets on the training grounds. Have a go!


A crucial discovery in the understanding of the Inca practice of human sacrifice was made in 1995, when an expedition by anthropologist Johan Reinhard and his Peruvian climbing partner, Miguel Zárate, uncovered the remains of a young girl, who became known as Juanita, In a crater on the side of Mt. Ampato in southern Peru. The remains were entirely frozen, and so almost perfectly preserved. Juanita provided the academic community tremendous insight into the Inca ritual, as investigation revealed that she had died as a result of a blow to the head, had eaten a meal of vegetables a few hours before her death, and was wrapped in a highly  decorated tapestry for her burial. Other ice mummies were excavated from the same crater, thought to have made their way to that final resting place when a volcanic eruption in the mountain range caused an ice melt. That dislodged the original burial site, and deposited the bodies and the various offerings buried alongside them in the crater. The mummies were remarkably well-preserved, with the clothes and accoutrements of Juanita especially suggesting that she belonged to a wealthy Cuzco family, further solidifying the theory that it was a great honor to die for the glory of the Inca Empire.

The jewel of the Inca Empire - The rise and fall of the city of Cuzco


Just over 11,000 feet above sea level, high in the Peruvian Andes, lies the city of Cuzco. Now a bustling metropolis with half a million inhabitants, it has a rich history Spanning centuries and has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Nestled in a high mountain valley on the plain left behind by an ancient glacier, it was perfectly placed for access to all parts of the region, as well as being easy to defend.
Firing
Tap on the screen to fire your musket.


The site upon which the city of Cuzco stands was first inhabited as early as 900 BCE, but the city did not really begin to take shape until the arrival of the Killke culture, who occupied that particular region of the Andes from 900 - 1200 CE. Archaeological dating suggests that a fortress was constructed in around 1100 CE. Further investigation uncovered the remains of a temple, roadway and aqueduct system, suggesting that, though now overshadowed by the Inca city that grew up around it, this site has always been a center of fairly advanced communities.
Targets
These are the targets you need to hit, there are four of each in total.


When the Inca arrived in the area in the 13th century, Cuzco became the capital of what was to be one of the most advanced civilizations in the medieval world. The city itself was built to a fairly rigid plan, constructed around four highways leading to the four quadrants of the empire. It had two main sectors, the ''hurin'' and the ''hanan''. The ''hurin'' were the two southern sectors of the empire, while the ''hanan'' were the two northern sectors. These were then subdivided once again to delineate the four provinces of the empire. A road from each of these sectors of Cuzco led to the corresponding quarter of the empire. This precise planning suggests there is little truth in the legend that the city was planned and built in the shape of the sacred puma!

As a model of urban planning, Cuzco remains exemplary.

This is separated from the more mundane areas, but those too were clearly delineated, with sectors for agricultural, artisanal and industrial production forming the surrounding neighborhoods. The center of the city was dominated by two large plazas covered in sand imported from the coast - the ''Huacaypata'' (Terrace of Repose) and the ''Cusipata'' (Fortunate Terrace) and were the sites of religious and state ceremonies. Overlooking the plazas was the carved stone throne of the King on a raised platform, called the ''unsu''. The plazas also had a giant stone basin covered In gold into which was poured chicha beer. Dominating the scene was the spire, the ''Sunturwasi'', the tallest structure in Cuzco.

The most impressive building in the city was the ''Coricancha'', the home of the temples (''wasí'') built in honor of Inti, the sun god, the moon goddess Mama Kilya, the creator god Viracocha, the goddess of Venus, the thunder god Illapa, and finally a temple dedicated to Cuichu, the god of rainbows. Each temple housed a statue and art and relics related to them. The ''Coricancha'' was also called the Golden Enclosure, and was considered by the Inca to be the centre of the world. Built from huge stone blocks, It demonstrated the fine masonry skills the Inca are known for, as the stones were neatly slotted together and held without mortar. The one storey temple buildings were thatched, and the doors were covered in sheets of gold. The Temple of the Sun, for the god Inti, was lined with over 700 sheets of beaten gold, while Mama Kilya's temple was lined with sheets of silver, to symbolize the tears of the moon.

;A Tea Party
You are standing on the edge of the waterfront. Over the last 250 years, it has moved out, as during the Revolution it was further back. In 1773 and Boston was a powder keg of anger and revolutionary sentiment. Following a firebrand speech against the Stamp Act, join revolutionary John Spurr and throw British tea into the Harbor.\n\nEnter the docks of revolutionary era Boston and head to the waterfront.


Another structure of note in the city was the fortress ''Sacsahuaman'', built by the Emperor Pachacuti. It was thought to have been initially constructed from mud and clay, before being transitioned into a stunning example of the famous Inca skill with stone. With four architects named as designers, It was built by 20,000 people. The Inca Empire had a system of mandatory public service called ''mit{{'}}a'' which enabled them to build their civic facilities, such as roads, temples, and this fortress. All able-bodied citizens were required to perform a certain number of days service throughout the year. As the wealth of the empire meant that a family could survive very comfortably if only farming for 65 days, the rest of the year would be devoted to mit'a in various forms.
;Historical details
The Boston Tea Party marked a critical moment in the history of the American Revolution as an act of colonial defiance against British rule.\n\nOn 16 December 1773, American colonists marched from the Old South Meeting House to Boston Harbor, where they threw 340 chests of tea owned by the British East India Company into the water, destroying them.\n \nInitially a protest against the tax on tea, levied without representation in the British Parliament, it soon came to be seen as one of the first sparks of the revolution that would engulf America.


At its height, the city of Cuzco had 40,000 inhabitants, with a further 200,000 living without the city walls. The rapid expanse of the Empire across the Andes meant that an estimated 10 million people were controlled, rigidly, from the city. This inevitably led to tension and rebellions, such as the war in Ecuador that occurred when the second city of the Empire was established in Quito. It was this tension that the Spanish Conquistador Pizarro exploited when he sacked the city and destroyed its splendor. The arrival of the Europeans on the continent also meant the arrival of previously unknown diseases, such as smallpox, which spread rapidly and is thought to have caused the deaths of 65-90% of the population. This confluence of events is ultimately what led to the fall of Cuzco, and, by extension, the end of the Inca Empire.

The city that shaped the modern western world


Nestled in the hills of Tuscany is Florence. ''Firenze''. Founded in 59BCE by Julius Caesar, it survived fear and famine, and became the birthplace of the modern Italian language. By the beginning of the 15th century, it had become one of the largest cities in Europe. It was there that the Renaissance flourished. This was thanks in large part to the Medici family. Originally textile traders, they capitalized on their wealth and rose to prominence in the 15th century, going on to found the Medici Bank, the largest in Europe at the time. This gave them unparalleled power in the region, especially in Florence. They encouraged the arts and humanism to thrive in the city where they made their home, and were visible at every level of government, even producing three Popes. While there were internal difficulties associated with such a large and powerful dynasty, their influence is eternal. Generations of Medici commissioned work from those who would become the great masters of Modern Art: Michaelangelo, Donatello, and Leonardo Da Vinci, to name but a few. In doing so, the Medici family shaped the modern world.

The Liberty tree was a famous elm tree that stood near Boston Common which became a focal point in the protest against the stamp act and British rule. In 1775, as tensions grew in the city, Loyalists felled the tree to the outrage of revolutionary supporters.

;The Order that would save humankind...
The Order of the Knights Templar is a secret organization that has operated globally for millennia. While the story of the Order's origin has been lost to the sands of time, it is believed to have taken an active role in the shaping of humanity since it freed itself from enslavement to the mysterious progenitor race known as The Ones Who Came Before.


The Templars have worked tirelessly towards a better future for humanity, and have been instrumental in bringing about significant change and progress in the world. However, it is this very desire for a better world, and the methods by which the Templars believe it will be attained, that puts them in direct opposition to the Assassin Brotherhood.
;Instructions
Objective
James Otis gave powerful speeches at the Old South Meeting House. He sought to make the ideas of liberty grow in the people of Boston. \n\nYou need to guide these ideas and help the vision of a Liberty Tree flourish!


The Templars believe that it is though control and guidance that humankind will achieve perfection - in essence, freedom through control - whereas the Assassins believe It Is though individual self-expression and open access to all knowledge that humankind will reach its full potential. These two ideologies have a similar goal; it is the method by which they Intend to reach it that differs, and has caused centuries of bloodshed.
Guiding the speeches

You need to guide the beam, representing his speeches, from the glowing window of the Old South Meeting House to the Liberty Tree above it using the reflective shards.


The Templars [sic] ideology has attracted some of the greatest minds of all ages to their cause, the most remarkable and successful of which have often been - men and women of science, and they have suffered greatly for their beliefs. As visionaries, the ideas they championed were usually significantly before their time, which left them vulnerable to attack and censorship. Never was this more true than during the Dark Ages in Europe, where countless brilliant minds were silenced and made to suffer for their foresight.
Adjusting the shards
Tap a shard, then drag the slider to change the direction it reflects the beam.\n \nEvery shard must be connected in sequence for the idea of the Liberty Tree to flourish.


In the 12th century, the leading Templars were able to align themselves with the Church, and so were able to pursue their agendas free from persecution. However, their main goal, the betterment of humanity though scientific and technical knowledge, was never made public, and remained a closely guarded secret. For almost two hundred years, the Templars were able to steer a course for humankind that would bring about great advances In medicine, the military, even in basic living conditions. They were influencers, advising kings and emperors on how best to rule.
Hint
If you need a hint, tap the icon to see the sequence the shards should be in.


They were also under attack. Their numbers were being systematically depleted by the Assassin Brotherhood. The issue came to a head in the 13th century when the Templars were denounced as heretics, and forced to disband. This decision was taken by the last publicly recognized Grand Master of the Order of the Knights Templar, Jaques de Molay. Making the ultimate sacrifice, he was burned at the stake, letting everyone think that the Templar Order would die with him. Unbeknownst to them, however, de Molay had selected nine trusted members of the Order to go forth into the world and spread the Templars philosophy, armed with their knowledge of The Ones Who Came Before. In doing this, de Molay ensured that the Order would live on, and could continue to work towards their ultimate goal.
;What happens
*'''James Otis:''' [Start] ''From this meeting house I must ensure the Tree of Liberty flourishes. It will grow in three steps.''
*'''James Otis:''' [1st tree complete] ''Two more steps to go. This revolution is not born on the battlefield!''
*'''James Otis:''' [2nd tree complete] ''I will help them see that a man's house is his castle. One more step.''

*'''James Otis:''' [TreeWithoutAllShards] ''I need to connect all these ideas to galvanize the spirit of those who gather here.''


The Order entered what they now consider to be a dark age. Despondency and corruption were rife, with leadership coming from those who had little respect for the original altruistic philosophy. Despite this, the Templars were still at the vanguard of scientific development during this time, and loyal members worked tirelessly toward their ultimate goal. The European colonization of the New World gave the Templars the opportunity to recover and rebuild, and the chance to retaliate and turn the tables on their foe, wiping out much of the Brotherhood leadership, and destroying any Assassin influence in the region.
;Outcome
*LIBERTY TREE FLOURISHES
Your words are a rousing call for independence. The Tree of Liberty grows in Boston from the ideas shared in the Old South Meeting House, stirring the hearts of people across the city.


The Templar Order's goals have evolved over time, with the dawning of the 20th century marking a turning point for the organization.
;Log
With James Otis I guided my ideas and made the Tree of Liberty flourish again at the Old South Meeting House.  


Following decades of innovation and Invention, culminating in the astounding technological and scientific advancements seen during the Industrial Revolution, the Templars recognized that continued progress at that rate could lead them to their goal faster and more successfully than they had ever dreamed. Capitalism would be the tool that would allow the leaps in development that the Templars knew were within their reach.

;Justice on Trial
You are standing near the Old State House. In 1770, the Boston Massacre resulted in the deaths of five protestors just meters from here. It was a key moment that affected the course of events. Help John Adams, Patriot leader and influential lawyer, gather evidence in order to give Captain Thomas Preston a fair trial.\n\nEnter revolutionary era Boston and head to the street next to the Old State House.


In the uncertain days before the Second World War, Abstergo Industries was formed. For the second time In Its history, the Templars had a public face, although the true aims of the Order, and the very existence of the Order itself, remained a secret. Only a few employed by Abstergo were Templars. Through the work of its many divisions, Abstergo would provide the means by which the Templars notion of a perfectly functioning capitalist society could be brought about. As a multinational corporation with concerns spanning all areas of modern life, Abstergo was the perfect front for the Templar Order to pursue their agenda.
;Historical details
The Boston massacre was a confrontation between a small contingent of British soldiers and a crowd of around 300 revolutionary supporters in which five protestors were killed and six were injured. The Boston government was determined to give the soldiers a fair trial so that there could be no grounds for retaliation from the British. \n\nJohn Adams, despite being a member of the Sons of Liberty and revolutionary supporter, defended the men at trial. The trial resulted in Thomas Preston, the senior British officer present, being acquitted after the jury was convinced he had not ordered his troops to fire. In the trial of his eight other soldiers involved six of them were acquitted while two, Matthew Kilroy and Hugh Montgomery, were found guilty on the offense of manslaughter and sentenced a reduced punishment of a branding of the thumb.


While their methods and goals have evolved, at its root the Templar Order believes in the betterment of humanity through technological and scientific advancement. For centuries uncounted, the search for relics left by The Ones Who Came Before, called Pieces of Eden, has occupied the Order. Significant resources have been devoted to acquiring as many of these unique artifacts as possible, in order that the technology they possess is harnessed and can be used for the greater good of humanity.

Examining evidence
;The City, the Sea and the Shanghai Bund...
Tap on items and witnesses around the scene to examine them. \n\nDrag on the screen to rotate items and uncover hidden clues.
Today, Shanghai Is not just China's largest city but also the world's. It has a population of 24 million people and is the country's financial and economic hub, as well as being the world's busiest container shipping port. And it's the port that has made the city - sat on the Huangpu River - a manmade tributary of the Yangtze River, a source of international intrigue, power struggles and hostility.


Shanghai was one of a number of ports opened up to foreigners after the signing of the Treaty of Nanking in 1842. The treaty was struck between China and Britain and it was agreed that land would be given over to the British in the city so they could more closely control their interests.
Reviewing evidence
Tap the evidence icon to review your collected evidence.\n\nOnce you have collected all the available evidence you will be able to access the questions.


Naturally, the new arrivals chose to be situated where they could keep the keenest eye on those interests - the banks lining the Huangpu River. And with them they brought their own aesthetics and styles. Westernised buildings began to appear along a section of the riverfront known as The Bund. The British were joined by the United States in 1844 and a Concession was granted to the French in 1848. In 1868, the foreign powers consolidated their hold into the Shanghai International Settlement and a legal and bureaucratic headache of epic proportions was born for all involved.
Questions

Tap the questions icon to view the three questions you must answer. \n\nTo submit evidence, tap on an empty box below the question and select the relevant item to submit.


The running of the Settlement fell to the largely British-controlled Shanghai Municipal Council (SMC). As western influence made itself felt, the SMC took over virtually all aspects of daily life within the Settlement, despite the fact that It was not actually a foreign colony - it was still, on paper, controlled by the Chinese government, and should have been operated along the lines of an embassy or foreign consulate.
Finalizing
Once you have submitted the required evidence for the three questions, return to the questions menu to finalize your case.


However, it was very much a self-contained entity. The SMC acquired local companies to provide power and utilities; it had its own police force and legal system; it even controlled the transport network, its trams and rickshaws. Drivers of the latter were said to need three licenses to ply their trade - one for the Chinese areas of the city, one for the Settlement, and another for the French Concession! Such rigorously maintained bureaucracy naturally led to friction with the local Chinese and the British found themselves at the receiving end of a serious international incident when members of the Shanghai Municipal Police opened fire on Chinese protestors on May 30th, 1925.
;What happens
*'''John Adams:''' ''Thank you for your help with this endeavor. Start by gathering the evidence we need.''
Evidence:
*Injured arm
**A physician stated that British Captain Preston's arm was damaged from a woodblock thrown during the riot and that, resultantly, he was unable to fire his gun.
*Carr's testimony
**One of the victims, American rioter Patrick Carr, who died later in the care of Dr. Jon Jefferies, said that he bore the soldiers no ill will and that he was satisfied that the soldier had no malice but fired to defend himself.
*Bloodied Coal
**It seems like the Revolutionary rioters were throwing more than just snowballs. This coal has blood from a soldier on it.
*Preston's coat
**There are gunshot burns on British Captain Preston's coat. He must've narrowly missed being shot by his men.
**[Adams' comment] These gunshot marks came from behind. Preston must've stood in front of his men when they fired.
*Soldier's hat
**It seems like this British soldier must have taken quite the blow to the head.
**[Adams' comment] Seems like Kilroy took a nasty blow to the head.
*[Jane] Whitehouse's testimony
**One of the eyewitnesses to the massacre stated that she saw British Captain Preston stand in front of his men.
*Mysterious man
**Jane Whitehouse, a civilian eyewitness, reported that a man who did not look like an officer came behind the soldiers and walked backward and forward, encouraging them to fire. She was positive the man was not British Captain Preston.
*Montgomery's account
**One of the British soldiers involved in the massacre stated that they were grabbed and were directly ordered to fire.
*Kilroy's account
**British soldier Kilroy stated that the soldiers only fired when the order was given.
*'''John Adams:''' ''We've collected all of the evidence. We should now assign them to the questions.''


The Municipal Police was largely recruited from locals, but foreigners, once again largely British and Commonwealth officers, filled the higher ranks; there was also a large contingent of Japanese. Within the Settlement, Japanese-controlled cotton mills had become the focus of sometimes-violent demonstrations. After a Japanese foreman shot one of the demonstrators, rioting, mass protests and strikes followed.
*'''John Adams:''' [Question 1] ''What evidence proves Preston did not order his men to fire?''
[Present evidence]
*'''John Adams:''' [Answer 1] ''Based on testimony and marks on Preston's coat, it's clear he stood in front at the time. Therefore, he would not have called for them to fire unless he wanted to get shot!''


The situation was exacerbated by the arrest of a number of Chinese students within the Settlement. Crowds gathered outside the police station where they were being held. Naturally, reports of what followed are at best confused, with the policemen in the Station claiming that the crowd had turned violent and were attempting to force their way into the station, hoping to release the imprisoned students. In the melee, the officer in charge apparently opened fire on the protestors, triggering a volley from his men. As many as nine people in the crowd were killed and many others gravely injured.
*'''John Adams:''' [Question 2] ''What evidence proves Preston's men did not shoot with malice?''
[Present evidence]
*'''John Adams:''' [Answer 2] ''It's clear from the evidence that Preston's men did not shoot with malice. Kilroy had taken a substantial blow to the head and had large objects thrown at him. Even Carr said he had never seen soldiers bear half as much as those soldiers did.''


The incident instigated a wave of rioting and strikes that left hundreds dead and seriously threatened foreign, and in particular British, interests in the Settlement. However, while Britain did not find itself directly culpable for the shootings, the threat to the Settlement's economic wellbeing, as well as pressure from its foreign partners, was enough to institute major change to the way the Settlement was run.
*'''John Adams:''' [Question 3] ''If not Preston, who told his men to fire?''
[Present evidence]
*'''John Adams:''' [Answer 3] ''The real mystery then is, if not Preston, who told these men to fire? Montgomery recalled being grabbed from behind and hearing someone yell at him to fire. Miss Whitehouse saw a man in dark-colored clothing who approached the men from behind. Who it was that caused this terrible tragedy, we may never know.''


Despite the sometimes-volatile nature of the Settlement, it maintained a reputation for luxury and wealth. The Roaring Twenties were not lost on the foreigners living in Shanghai and the Settlement brimmed with nightclubs and dancehalls that swung to the raucous sound of Jazz.
*'''John Adams:''' [All evidence presented] ''My thanks. We have served the cause of the law and shown our convictions this day.''


The Bund itself housed a number of luxury hotels, banks and offices, built in a plethora of styles - Gothic, Renaissance, Neo-Classical and, of course, Art Deco. Amongst the most famous is the Shanghai Club Building, built in 1864 to house a men's club for members of the then British Concession. The original was torn down and replaced in 1910 by a Baroque Rival structure six storeys high that remained one of Shanghai's most exclusive venues during the 1920s. Another, the Palace Hotel, was the vision of Sir Victor Sassoon. Construction began in 1927, and the building, which survived the Japanese Invasion of 1937, remians a jewel on the Bund, and one of Shanghai's most popular attractions.  
;Outcome
*Verdict Reached
You have helped John Adams gather the evidence and look at the questions central to the trial of those involved in the Boston Massacre. The pursuit of liberty under law demonstrates not just a passionate commitment to freedom but a willingness to hold all to its standards.

;Du Yusheng and the Green Gang that ran Shanghai
After the tragic events of the Boston Massacre I helped John Adams gather evidence in order to give Captain Thomas Preston a fair trial.  
The chaos and terror that filled a streets of Shanghai in April 1927 was orchestrated and controlled by some of the most powerful and notorious men in the city. One of them was Du Yusheng. In the refined French Concession of the International settlement . <!--Not an error -->


Born in the eastern provincial town of Gaogiao, his family moved to the nearby city of Shanghai when Du was just a year old. The move was not an auspicious one, as his mother died shortly afterwards in childbirth, his sister was sold into slavery, his father died, and his step-mother disappeared and was never seen again. With no family to support him, Du returned to the countryside to live with his grandmother.

He returned to the city when he was fourteen years old and managed to secure a job in the French Concession, working on a fruit stall. His nefarious tendencies made themselves known early on, as he was fired from that role for theft. Unwilling, or unable, to return to his home town, he scraped together a meager living on the streets, eventually becoming a bodyguard in a brothel, aged only sixteen. It was this job that solidified his position as a member of the underworld, and it was In this brothel that he first became aware of the Green Gang, the secret society and criminal organization that was flourishing in the disorganization and confusion of the International Settlement and French Concession at that time. Du was intrigued, trusted and quickly became a member.

Still. a child by any standards, Du's life course was now set. After some time as a minor gang member, he was introduced to Huang Jinrong, the notorious mob boss who moonlighted as the highest ranking Chinese detective in the French Concession police. While not actually a member of the Green Gang himself, his wife, also a highly accomplished criminal, took a shine to Du, and elevated him to the coveted position of gambling and opium enforcer throughout the territory she controlled. This prestigious position allowed Du to indulge himself with the finer things in life. He dressed in the best fabrics, pure Chinese silk, and was often surrounded by beautiful, biddable, women. He was even able to buy a mansion in the French Concession, which he set about filling with wives and concubines. This was before he truly came into the power that would change the course of Chinese history.

In 1924, Huang Jinrong was arrested for the savage beating of the son of a warlord. He stepped down from his public positions immediately, and handed control of his criminal empire over to Du. In one fell swoop, he became the “zongshi” - the grandmaster of the underworld. He was controller of gambling dens, prostitution, and protection rackets, and, with the compliance of the police and colonial government, he ran the opium trade in and out of the French Concession. However, he also established a number of legitimate corporations, such as Shanghai's largest shipping company, and two banks. It was the opium trade that would plague him though, as he became heavily addicted to the drug.

Politically, the Green Gang had significantly benefited from the disjointed government of the Shanghai International Settlement and French Concession. In this murky legal environment, organized crime was allowed to thrive, driven by mass Immigration to the city and a favoring of ancestral ties. Yusheng and Jinrong became acquainted as they were both natives of the Suzhou area. As their power and Influence grew, the Green Gang were often hired by the Kuomintang to put down strikes and disrupt labor meetings. Working with other criminal organizations, the Green Gang were instrumental in the White Terror massacre of April 1927, which saw 9,000 pro-Communist strikers brutally killed tn the Shanghai streets on the orders of Chiang Kai-Shek. Following this, Du Yusheng was appointed the President of the Board of Opium Suppression, in a specatularly brazen move on the part of Chiang Kai-Shek. Du Yusheng was now unequivocally in control of the entirety of China's opium trade.

Du Yusheng was not able to maintain his close relationship with Chiang Kai-Shek. The war between Japan and China that started in 1937 brought to light many of the differences in idealogy between the two. Having fled to exile in Hong Kong, Du Yusheng did not return to Shanghai until 1945. Far from being greeted as the returning hero, as he imagined, he found his position diminshed beyond recognition. He returned to Hong Kong in 1949, and eventually died there in 1951.

On April 12, 1927, the course of Chinese history was changed forever when General Chiang Kai Shek, leader of the Nationalist army, conclusively split with the Communist Party of China. Marshaling his troops, the Nationalist army carried out a purge of Communist Party members and supporters in the streets of Shanghai. An estimated 400 people lost their lives, but at least 5,000 were recorded as missing. The Purge, as it became known, laid the groundwork for what were to be some of the most turbulent years of Chinese history.

From bases in North Africa, Barbary pirates raided ships traveling through the Mediterranean, plundering cargo and enslaving crew. Raids were also conducted along the seaside towns of Western Europe, with thousands of men, women and children captured, regardless of their race or religion. This eventually led to the Barbary Wars of the early 17th century.

;People of the Revolution
;Tripoli <nowiki>:</nowiki> The Mermaid of the Mediterranean
<tabber>
Founded in the 7th century BC by the Phoenicians, Tripoli (originally named Oea) is the capital and largest city in the State of Lybia.
|-|Caesar Glover=
Caesar was one of hundreds of sailors, White and Black, who helped the Continental Army escape from Brooklyn in 1776, enabling the rebellion to survive. Born in Africa, he was enslaved as a child and brought to North America.<br><br>Somehow, he earned his freedom, and in 1775 he joined the Revolution as part of the Marblehead regiment. This group of seamen manned the boats in the New Jersey and New York campaigns, including the famous crossing of the Delaware River. Black New Englanders like Caesar were among the Continental Army’s first recruits, 150 of whom carried Washington’s troops from Brooklyn Heights to Peck Slip in August 1776. The amateur military, greatly outnumbered, was badly defeated in Long Island. But they were saved by a thick fog, an early historian writing that no one in the region could remember any such weather “within the space of twenty or thirty years\". If not for the skill of mariners like Caesar, military historians agree, no more than half of the decimated rebel army would have escaped.


With a history spanning several centuries, the city was held by a number of multinational states during its formative years, including the Roman and Spanish Empires, before falling to Ottoman rule in the mid-fourteenth century.
|-|Nathan Hale=
Nathan Hale is one of the American Revolution’s most famous spies and one of its earliest martyrs. Having volunteered to stay in New York after the Battle of Long Island in order to pass information to the Revolutionary cause, the 21-year-old Patriot was hanged by the occupying British government on September 22, 1776. This underscored the importance of effective espionage practices for the rebels. <br><br>Alongside George Washington’s spy ring on Long Island, intelligence-gathering was far more commonly done by everyday unsung heroes of the cause. Knowledge is typically passed mouth to mouth, through both formal and informal communication networks. Waitresses overhearing conversation between officers in a tavern passed information on to rebel informants. Slaves moving goods from city to country reported on the British army’s health. Families permitted to cross battlefield lines to visit relatives shared observations in conversation and correspondence.\n


Named for the three cities encompassing the province, the Eyalet of Tripolitania quickly became one of most impressive territories along the North African Coast. Governed by a series of 'Pashas' and 'Deys', the city remained largely independent from the Sultan, despite remaining under nominal Ottoman rule.
|-|Alexander Hamilton=
Alexander Hamilton was one of George Washington’s trusted advisers during the American Revolution and the first Secretary of the Treasury of the United States. Born in 1757 in the West Indies, he was orphaned at the age of 11. His cleverness showed early, and his employers pooled their money to send him to university. Hamilton moved to New York in 1773 and began attending King’s College (later Columbia University). By 1774, he was writing pro-rebel articles, and by 1775 he’d joined the volunteer militia to oppose the British. \n \nIn 1776 he formed his own artillery company, becoming a captain, before being appointed as aide-de-camp to Washington in 1777. A skilled military commander, his leadership was decisive in the Battle of Yorktown. After the war Hamilton went on to become a respected statesman, representing New York and the nation in the preservation of the principles of the revolution and formation of the new government.


Ruling from 1766-1838, Yusuf Karamanli was the most infamous of his dynasty. With the city a base of operation for Barbary corsairs, tensions soon escalated between the United States and North Africa. Numerous American vessels fell foul to the state's piratical practices and, following the Pasha's demand for an increase in tribute, a naval force was sent from the US to blockade the city.
|-|William Howe=
William Howe was the commander in chief of the British Army in North America (1776–78). Despite several military successes, he was unable to destroy the Continental Army and stem the American Revolution.\n \nWilliam Howe had been active in North America during the French and Indian War a few years earlier, where he earned a reputation as one of the army’s most brilliant young generals. He initially captured New York in 1776 when the British defeated the Americans at the Battle of Long Island and later led the campaign to capture Philadelphia. These victories were, however, not enough to defeat Washington's armies, and he resigned in 1778 to return to Britain.


These acts would lead to the Barbary Wars of the early 19th century, leaving the Ottoman Empire with little choice but to comply with the demands of the United States.
|-|Thomas Jefferson=
Thomas Jefferson was a pivotal figure in the American Revolution, acting as a leading intellectual, a political activist, and the primary author of the Declaration of Independence. Throughout the conflict, while he did not fight on the battlefield, he sought to transform the American colonies into a modern republic, advocating for the separation of church and state, the abolition of feudal inheritance laws, and widespread educational reform. As a delegate to the Second Continental Congress in 1776, the 33-year-old Virginian was tasked with drafting the document that justified the colonies’ break from Great Britain, articulating the foundational American ideals of \"Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness\".\n


==Locus==
|-|Marquis de Lafayette=
===1===
Marquis de Lafayette was a French aristocrat and military officer who played a crucial role in the American Revolution, acting as a vital link between the American colonies and France. Inspired by the American cause of liberty, the 19-year-old defied King Louis XVI and traveled to America in 1777, volunteering to serve without pay. \n \nHe quickly formed a close bond with George Washington and was commissioned as a major general in the Continental Army. Lafayette proved his bravery and skill in battle and was wounded in action. This led him to return to France and lobby for increased military aid, successfully securing French troops and supplies for the colonies. Returning to America in 1781, he led American forces against Lord Cornwallis in Virginia, setting the stage for the decisive American-French victory at the Siege of Yorktown.
;The Original Private Eyes
Founded In 4850 by Allan Pinkerton - an immigrant barrel-maker turned Chicago police detective - the PINKERTON NATIONAL DETECTIVE AGENCY was one of Americas most notorious crime-prevention and private security firms of the late nineteenth century.


Though Pinkerton initially specialized in train robberies and counterfeiting cases, after foiling a plot to assassinate Abraham Lincoln - who would later hire the agency as his personal 'secret service' during the American Civil War - the fledgling enterprise garnered a reputation as America's go-to office for counter-intelligence and security operations. By the early 1870s it had grown into the largest private law enforcement organization in the world.
|-|Francis Lewis=
Francis Lewis was a Welsh-born merchant and patriot who signed the Declaration of Independence and the Articles of Confederation. As a dedicated radical in New York, he served in the Stamp Act Congress and was a member of the Committee of Sixty and the New York Provincial Congress before joining the Continental Congress from 1775 to 1779. <br><br>During the Revolutionary War, Lewis utilized his commercial experience to help secure supplies for the Continental Army, particularly through his work on the Continental Board of Admiralty. His commitment to the patriot cause came at a high personal cost. Following the Battle of Long Island in 1776, British forces destroyed his estate in Queens and imprisoned his wife. While she was later released in a prisoner exchange, the harsh conditions of her captivity severely affected her health, leading to her death in 1779. Devastated by his wife's death, Lewis subsequently retired from politics, leaving Congress in 1779 and retiring completely by 1781.


Adhering to a strict code of ethics and defined by its striking company logo (the supposed inspiration of the term 'private eye'), at its heyday, the Pinkerton agency had more agents under its employ than the standing US army and, using its extensive collection of mugshots, established the world's first criminal database. Frequently subcontracted for espionage operations by the US government, the agency also remained a favorite of the railroad companies, gaining legendary status for its role in the hunt and capture of outlaws like Wild Bill and Jesse James. But, as the century drew to a close and ownership passed to Allan's sons, Robert and William, the agency's public perception would take a turn for the worse.
|-|Hercules Mulligan=
Hercules Mulligan was a vital spy for the Continental Army and a dedicated patriot during the American Revolution. Raised in New York City, he was an early member of the Sons of Liberty and a close associate of Alexander Hamilton, whom he mentored and introduced to revolutionary ideals. Working as a successful tailor, Mulligan cultivated relationships with high-ranking British Officers, allowing him to gather crucial intelligence directly from the enemy. Despite the dangers of operating within British-occupied New York, he operated as a confidential correspondent for George Washington, supplying information that helped shape the war's outcome. <br><br>Mulligan is credited with saving Washington’s life on two occasions by revealing plots to capture him. Even after being suspected of spying and briefly arrested, he continued his intelligence work with the help of his enslaved assistant, Cato. Following the war, Washington solidified Mulligan’s reputation as a patriot by having breakfast with him shortly after the British evacuation of New York.


Pinkerton's involvement with the labor strikes of the 1890s would ultimately prove their downfall. The company's past use of heavy-handed tactics, coupled with accusations of violence from union sympathisers, soon led to public outcry, culminating In the events of the Homestead Strike of 1892 when a firefight involving 300 Pinkerton agents led to the death of 16 men. Pinkerton's reputation was left in tatters and the company would spend years struggling to rebuild it.
|-|Isaac Sears=
Isaac Sears was the public face of the Sons of Liberty in New York City, the second and perhaps most active chapter in the colonies. He was a prosperous merchant, like so many leaders of the underground rebel group. During the mid-1700s, he made fine income as a privateer, hunting the ships of imperial rivals for the British. Only when the Sugar Act brought an end to his trade in the West Indies did the sea captain turn against Britain. During the revolution he was a member of the Committee of Sixty and was involved in raids on British troops and in the destruction of Loyalist property throughout New York City.


Nevertheless, the Pinkerton agency endured, and today Pinkerton Inc. has grown into a billion dollar multinational organization, remaining one of the world's leading providers of security.
|-|Anna Strong=
Anna Smith Strong was the only recorded female member of the Culper Spy Ring, a secret network established to gather intelligence for General George Washington in British-occupied New York. Living in Setauket, Long Island, she utilized her position to pass messages while avoiding suspicion, partly because her relatives were Loyalists. <br><br>Strong’s fame stems from the ingenious clothesline code which she used to signal Caleb Brewster, a courier who transported intelligence across the Long Island Sound. When a message was ready to be picked up, she would hang a black petticoat on her clothesline, clearly visible from across the bay. She would add a specific number of white handkerchiefs to indicate which of the six designated coves Brewster should use to meet his contact.
 
|-|George Washington=
George Washington was the commander-in-chief of the Continental Army during the American Revolution. Tasked with fighting a superior British force, Washington formed the colonial militias into a disciplined fighting force. Despite losing more battles than he won, his resilience, strategic retreats, and crucial victories, such as the final victory at Yorktown, secured American independence. \n \nUnanimously elected, Washington served as president from 1789 to 1797, where he implemented a strong, well-financed national government, including the creation of a national bank. His dedication to civilian control of the military, together with his voluntary retirement after two terms, helped secure the stability of American democracy.

|-|Birch=
;Passing Judgment
You are at Fraunces Tavern. In 1783, as the war came to an end, a joint British and American commission overseen by Brigadier General Birch convened here to review the claims of Black Loyalist ex-slaves seeking freedom and evacuation with the British Army. Boston King was one of these ex slaves. In this memory he presents his case to the panel to obtain a certificate of freedom.<br><br>Enter the streets of revolutionary era New York and head from City Hall towards Fraunces Tavern.
 
;Historical details
In 1783, as the British prepared to evacuate New York at the end of the Revolutionary War, the city became the site of a tense and historic reckoning. During the conflict, British commanders had promised freedom to enslaved people who escaped Patriot owners and joined their lines, and thousands sought refuge in British occupied New York. <br><br>When peace was declared, American officials demanded the return of formerly enslaved people under the terms of the Treaty of Paris. To address the crisis, British authorities convened hearings at Fraunces Tavern, overseen by Brigadier General Samuel Birch. There, formerly enslaved Black Loyalists petitioned to prove they had served the British cause and were entitled to evacuation. These proceedings, later called the Birch trials, required testimony about military service and escape. Those who qualified had their names entered into what became known as the Book of Negroes and were granted passage to Nova Scotia and other parts of the British Empire. <br><br>More than 3,000 ultimately departed New York under British protection. For many, the evacuation marked the beginning of a new and uncertain chapter, but it also represented one of the earliest large scale emancipations in American history, unfolding in the final days of British rule in the city.
 
;Instructions
Objective
During the Birch Trials, the board evaluated the case for emancipation of ex-slaves. <br><br>Present Boston King's case by showing the needed evidence
 
Questions
The officer will ask you questions. You need to provide the right piece of evidence to answer him.
 
Presenting Evidence

;What happens
*'''British Officer:''' [start] ''Good day, Boston King. I hope you are keeping well in these trying times. These trials are intended to enable us to demonstrate your suitability to receive a Certificate of Freedom. The certificate will give you passage to Nova Scotia and a new life. There are three questions to address. Let us begin.''
 
Evidence:
*Pay Records
**[Details] I managed to keep hold of my pay records despite the chaos of the war. Hopefully this will help.\n-\nCharles Town, the 1st Day of August, 1782 Received of the Paymaster of His Majesty’s Forces, the sum of Eight Shillings, being one week’s pay for Boston King, a Negro man employed with the troops in military duty and camp service. \nThe said Boston King having come within the British Lines and since served with the Army, is to receive the above allowance, or the equivalent in provisions, clothing, or other necessaries, as available. \nSigned, Deputy Paymaster\n
**[Boston King comment] These are my pay records from the army.
*Letter from Captain Grey
**[Details] I was given this letter from Captain Grey who I served under in the New York Volunteers.\n-\nI do hereby certify that Boston King, a Negro man, having formerly come within the British Lines in South Carolina, hath for some time served with me in the New York Volunteers, and hath conducted himself with fidelity and good behavior. \nGiven under my hand this fifteenth day of October, 1783. \nCaptain Grey, New York Volunteers\n
**[Boston King comment] I was given this letter from Captain Grey.
*A Herbal Remedy
**[Details] Using powdered yarrow root to help cuts and wounds heal was something that my mother taught me. She was so knowledgeable about herbal remedies having learned from the Native Americans in South Carolina. <br><br>Her literacy and love of learning have been a constant inspiration and I hope one day to be able to write an account of my life.
**[Boston King comment] I carried herbal remedies like this throughout the war.
*My British Uniform
**[Details] Though I started out as a servant to the British officers it wasn't long before I found myself in the uniform of the brave New York Volunteers. <br><br>As a former slave, I was often assigned the most dangerous missions. It was in 1781 when I was sent alone to gather reinforcements when my battalion was under siege at Nelson’s Ferry. I narrowly avoided capture and returned to a hero's welcome.
**[Boston King comment] This is my uniform from the New York Volunteer British regiment.
*Dunmore's Proclamation
**[Details] Dunmore's Proclamation promises me freedom in exchange for the service that I have given as a Loyalist.<br><br>I was a young man when Loyalist forces seized Charlestown in May 1780 and I determined to throw myself into the hands of the English. They received me readily, and I began to feel the happiness of liberty. The impact of the Proclamation has been huge, 500 slaves left the day it was made and over 5,000 have since done so.
**[Boston King comment] Dunmore's Proclamation promises me my freedom.
*My Carpenters Tools
**[Details] I was 16 years old when I first apprenticed to a carpenter. He treated me very cruelly, and I was subject to frequent beating whenever a tool was misplaced. I was fortunate that my previous owner heard of my hardships and came to speak to him about my treatment.<br><br>The skills I learned there, no matter how unpleasantly, have enabled me to work for the British and the cause of my own Liberty\n
**[Boston King comment] These are the tools I used when I was a slave.
 
*'''British Officer:''' [1st question] ''What proof can you bring that you were in His Majesty’s Service or Loyal to the Crown and its officers?''
*'''British Officer:''' [1st answer] ''Very good. Your service in the British Army is ample evidence.''
*'''British Officer:''' [2nd question] ''Have you evidence to confirm your arrival at his Majesty's garrison prior to November, 1782?''
*'''British Officer:''' [2nd answer] ''Yes, that pay record demonstrates when you were serving.''
*'''British Officer:''' [3rd question] ''Can you show that you are not known to be a man of bad behavior?''
*'''British Officer:''' [3rd answer] ''Captain Grey clearly declares you of good character.''
 
*'''British Officer:''' [Some wrong] ''I think that's just enough evidence to get that certificate.''
*'''British Officer:''' [All correct] ''Congratulations Sir. Your service qualifies you for a Certificate of Freedom.''
 
;Outcome
*Certificate of Freedom
In September 1783, Boston King was declared free and forever emancipated by order of Sir Guy Carleton. He was permitted to depart with the Black Loyalists for Nova Scotia.
 
;Log
I presented my case to the Birch trials panel at Fraunces Tavern.\nI obtained a certificate of freedom and was able to leave with the evacuating British.
 
|-|Cannons=
;Defending the Hudson
Near this spot, in 1776 the Battery fortifications overlooked the Hudson. At the time, American forces had taken control of New York, and the British Navy blockaded the harbor. Join the soldiers at the Battery under the command of Rufus Putnam, man the cannon, and do what you can to stop the British ships coming up the river. <br><br>Enter the revolutionary era Battery fort and take up your position at a cannon.
 
;Historical details
By the summer of 1776, revolutionary forces controlled Manhattan, but the harbor told a different story. Hundreds of British ships filled New York Harbor, carrying tens of thousands of soldiers in the largest amphibious invasion of the eighteenth century. <br><br>General George Washington had cannons dragged into position near here to stop the British ships. On October 17, lookouts spotted HMS Phoenix and HMS Rose pushing up the Hudson. American batteries opened fire, but the ships broke through with little damage. Panic spread across the city, and Washington’s supply and communication lines were suddenly exposed. The Revolution in New York began not with victory, but with uncertainty and fear, as the city became the central battleground of the war.
 
;Instructions
Objective
Under the command of Rufus Putnam, you must man a cannon at the Battery and shoot the British ships as they attempt to sail up the Hudson River.
 
Aiming and Firing
Drag the slider at the bottom of the screen to aim the cannon.<br><br>Tap the fire button to fire.
 
Reloading
After each shot, you must reload. Tap on the screen when the triangle touches the bar to load, then repeat to ram and prime the cannon.
 
;What happens
*'''Rufus Putnam:''' [Start] ''Stand and ready your guns. The Phoenix will come from the left!''
*'''Rufus Putnam:''' [first shot] ''If they get past our fortifications, they will be able to cut our supply and communication lines.''
*'''Rufus Putnam:''' [first reload] ''Take your time and make the shots count. America is watching your aim!''
*'''Rufus Putnam:''' [second ship] ''Look to your left, there is the Rose. Focus on her and aim for the waterline!''
*'''Rufus Putnam:''' [third ship] ''There is another on the left! We're cutting them up, but I'm not sure it's going to be enough.''
*'''Rufus Putnam:''' [ships out of view] ''Good shooting. Hopefully the batteries further upriver will be able to finish the job.''
 
;Outcome
*Hudson Breached!
Despite your efforts, the British ships have broken through and sailed up the Hudson. The batteries further up the river will have to stop them now.
 
;Log
At the Battery I took control of a cannon and tried to stop the British ships coming up the river.\nDespite my best efforts and some good shooting I couldn't stop the British Navy.
 
|-|House=
;Colonial House
Not far from here, in 1781, British officers were billeted in the grand houses lining Broadway during the occupation of New York. Join Washington's Culper Spy Ring and use your role working in one of these houses to secretly gather information that could help the war.<br><br>Enter the streets of revolutionary era New York and head down revolutionary era Broadway towards a British occupied house.
 
;Historical details
Between 1776 and 1783 New York became a center of espionage! The most famous American spy network, known as the Culper Ring, reported directly to George Washington and relied on informants across the region.  British officers were often billeted in private homes, living alongside civilian families, which blurred the line between public war and private life. While American men such as the merchant and tailor Hercules Mulligan played important roles, much of the intelligence gathering depended on women, both free and enslaved, whose daily work allowed them to move through the city with less suspicion. <br><br>Domestic labor placed women in kitchens, parlors, markets, and streets where British officers spoke openly. They could observe troop movements, overhear conversations, and quietly pass along information through coded messages and trusted couriers. In a city filled with checkpoints and patrols, ordinary routines became acts of resistance. In occupied New York, intelligence gathered inside homes and boarding houses helped shape Washington’s decisions and influence the course of the war.
 
;Instructions
Objective
Agent 355, a member of Washington's Culper Ring, secretly gathered information on the British for the Revolution. <br><br>Search through the house and carefully gather important military intelligence from amongst the soldiers' items.
 
Detection
Your presence must go unnoticed. Avoid creaky floorboards and don't spend too long in the room, or suspicion will grow.\nWatch the suspicion indicator on your screen. If it fills up, it will be too dangerous to continue and the mission will end.
 
Crucial Intel
Tap on highlighted items around the room to inspect them.<br><br>Review the information and only take relevant intel as each piece you take will raise your suspicion meter.
 
;What happens
Items:
*Fuel request
This letter details the problems of getting suitable firewood. Soldiers sent out of the city to source it were ambushed by revolutionary troops. The letter contains a request to requisition additional supplies for the stores as the weather grows colder.<br><br>This is proof of the effectiveness of our current strategy.
*Troop distribution
This is a dispatch detailing the movement of several hundred soldiers from the city to the Caribbean to deal with unrest there. <br><br>The weakening of the defenses in New York could prove essential intelligence for General Washington and his aim of retaking the city.
*Pass to New York
This is an official military pass granting the bearer the ability to leave the city and travel through the checkpoints in the surrounding area. <br><br>With the city under the control of the British Army, all movement of people in and out is carefully controlled - this could be a great help to our spies in the city.
*Map of Westpoint
This is a military plan of our defenses at West Point. It shows the defenses and the chain used to obstruct British navigation of the Hudson. <br><br>This may be normal planning, but it could also signal that General Washington is correct and the British do plan to attack!
*Rivingtons paper
Ha, it's not surprising that they are reading the Royal Gazette. <br><br>Rivington is nothing more than the King's mouthpiece and I'm sure these soldiers lap up his lies.
*A shopping list
Tobacco, soap, leather blacking, claret, new stockings...  <br><br>This is nothing more than the shopping list of one of the officers. We'll not gain any insights from this.
*A letter home
I hope the house is faring well. Please send my kind respects to my loving Wife & Child and all Enquiring friends... <br><br>A letter home from one of the officers here will not help us. I hope he can deliver it in person when he departs!
 
*'''Muffled British Officers:''' [QuarterDetection] ''... well personally I don't think they have much of a chance. They're farmers, not soldiers ...''
*'''Muffled British Officers:''' [HalfDetection] ''... it's not really about Liberty, it's simply the question whether the colonies shall or shall not be subject to the legislature of Great Britain ...''
*'''Muffled British Officers:''' [ThreeQuarterDetection] ''... it's a tragedy that we must sacrifice so many brave lives, in order to put an end to such an unnatural rebellion ...''

*'''Agent 355:''' [end] ''I can't risk anything more, or they are sure to find me.''
*'''Agent 355:''' [End all gathered] ''I think I've found everything of use!''
 
;Outcome
*Intel Gathered
This is the intel vital for the revolutionary cause. Gathered from under the noses of the British Officers.

Working for Washington's Culper Spy Ring I used my role working in one of these houses to secretly gather information that could help the Revolution.
 
|-|Escaping=
;Escaping Brooklyn
The remnants of Washington's forces landed near here in 1776, after a devastating defeat on Long Island, having evaded the British navy and escaped under the cover of darkness. Crew a ship carrying Caesar Glover and his soldiers, in order to help them evacuate before it is too late.<br><br>Enter the docks of revolutionary era New York to guide the ship back to harbor.
 
;Historical details
In August 1776, nearly 9,000 soldiers evacuated Manhattan in small boats. The Revolution had nearly collapsed. British forces overwhelmed the Continental Army on Long Island in the largest battle of the war. By August 29, George Washington and thousands of soldiers were trapped in Brooklyn, pinned against the East River with the Royal Navy blocking escape. If the army were captured, the rebellion might end before it had truly begun. <br><br>As night fell, a daring plan took shape. Under cover of darkness and aided by a thick fog that rolled in before dawn, soldiers began evacuating across the river in small boats. Experienced mariners from the region, including White, Black, and Native seafarers, quietly ferried troops to Manhattan while British warships sat unaware in the harbor. All night long, men, horses, and supplies crossed the water in near silence. <br><br>By morning, thousands of soldiers had escaped without detection. It was not a battlefield victory, but it was decisive. The survival of Washington’s army ensured that the Revolution would continue, and New York became the setting for one of the war’s most dramatic escapes.
 
;Instructions
Objective
The Continental Army and Caesar Glover escaped Brooklyn. <br><br>Navigate to the highlighted area on the Manhattan docks without being detected.
 
Steer the ship by drawing a circle on your screen to rotate the wheel. Drag the sail bar up or down to control speed.
 
Detection 

On the left of your screen is a detection meter that will begin to fill if you are spotted. <br><br>Avoid detection by the British ships by steering away from their search lights or by hiding in the clouds of fog.
 
;What happens
*'''Caesar Glover:''' [Start] ''Take the utmost care. If the British see us, they will be on us in a moment. We will need both our wits and bravery to make it over. Good luck.''
*'''Caesar Glover:''' [quarterProgress] ''We are fortunate that it is so dark. The British can scarcely discern a man at six yards distance tonight.''
*'''Caesar Glover:''' [halfProgress] ''If this fog lifts, we are done for sure. We will have to trust in fate.''
*'''Caesar Glover:''' [threequarterProgress] ''We are almost there! Hold fast!''
 
*'''Caesar Glover:''' [DetectionEnd] ''Watch out! That's a British ship! We'll have to retreat and try again.''
*'''Caesar Glover:''' [RockEnd] ''Watch out! That will sink us!''
*'''Caesar Glover:''' [SuccessEnd] ''We made it! Well done. I thought I was done for sure.''
 
;Outcome
*Escape successful!
You crossed the East River and avoided detection by British ships. You were fortunate that it was so dark and full of fog or you were sure to have been seen!<br><br>Congratulations on successfully evacuating from Brooklyn. It was a desperate moment for the Revolution
 
;Log
I screwed a ship past the British blockade and helped Caesar Glover evacuate before it was too late.
 
|-|Fire=
;Fire Suspects
In 1783, with the British still in control of New York, Sir Guy Carleton commissioned an investigation into the causes of the devastating fire of 1776. The inquiry brought officers to this very spot you are now standing on to question those present at the time. Speak to people present at the time of the fire, help prepare an investigation, and accuse someone of being the cause.<br><br>Enter the streets of revolutionary era New York that were destroyed by the fire and begin questioning the suspects.
 
;Historical details
On September 20, 1776, just days after British forces captured New York, a massive fire broke out and spread rapidly across lower Manhattan. Fueled by wooden buildings and strong winds, the flames destroyed nearly one fifth of the city. Churches, homes, warehouses, and vital infrastructure were reduced to ashes. <br><br>As autumn approached, thousands of residents including Loyalists, British soldiers, formerly enslaved people seeking refuge, and civilians caught between loyalties were left homeless. Much of the city became a patchwork of tents and temporary shelters, reshaping life in British occupied New York for the rest of the war. Suspicion quickly followed. British authorities arrested several individuals, accusing revolutionaries of setting the blaze to sabotage the occupation. <br><br>In 1783, just weeks before evacuating the city, Commander in Chief Sir Guy Carleton ordered another investigation. Officials reported possible incendiary evidence and conflicting eyewitness testimony, but no definitive cause was proven. Historians continue to debate whether the fire was accidental or deliberate. The Great Fire of 1776 remains one of the most destructive disasters in New York’s history and a stark reminder that the Revolution unfolded not only in battles, but in a city divided by fear and uncertainty.
 
;Instructions
Objective
You must investigate and decide upon who caused the great fire of New York for the Carleton Commission. Do this by questioning three key suspects.
 
Talking
The key suspects are: British General William Howe, American General George Washington, and New York fire chief John Baltus Dash.<br><br>Tap on them to ask questions and learn about the fire.
 
New information
Each new piece of information unlocks further lines of questioning.
 
Notes
Tap the notes icon at any time to re-examine any of the suspects' answers.

;What happens
*'''Player:''' ''Tell me about yourself, Mr Dash.''
*'''John Baltus Dash:''' ''I'm John Baltus Dash, a veteran firefighter. I worked to protect the city during the fire. I managed to protect much of the city from the fire, including St Paul's.''
 
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about Howe?''
*'''John Baltus Dash:''' ''His men often act like drunken louts. I've seen badly attended cook fires that got out of control.''
 
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about Washington?''
*'''John Baltus Dash:''' ''I heard that Washington was talking about how he wanted the city to burn down.''
 
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about the buildings that were destroyed?''
*'''John Baltus Dash:''' ''The British soldiers helped take out some buildings to stop the spread of the fire. Without that I think the other half of the city would be gone.''
 
*'''Player:''' ''What do you know about the incendiaries that were found?''
*'''John Baltus Dash:''' ''There were incendiaries scattered all over. Whoever did this wanted to start the fire in multiple spots at once.''
 
*'''Player:''' ''How do you explain your hidden stash of valuables?''
*'''John Baltus Dash:''' ''Of course I knew the fire was coming. The whole place is a tinderbox. Why wouldn't I hide my valuables?''
 
 
*'''Player:''' ''Tell me about yourself, Mr Howe.''
*'''William Howe:''' ''I'm William Howe, a British general. I am the commander-in-chief of the British Army in North America in charge of New York.''
 
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about Dash?''
*'''William Howe:''' ''I saw him burying his valuables before the fires even broke out. It's very suspicious, like he knew the fire was coming, but he didn't warn anyone.''
 
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about Washington?''
*'''William Howe:''' ''That man was definitely up to something. He had all the bells removed from the city. It meant that when the fire broke out, my men weren't alerted until later. I think he planned it!''
 
*'''Player:''' ''What do you know about the badly attended cook fires?''
*'''William Howe:''' ''My men's training is exceptional, and they are the finest infantry in the world. Sometimes they like to drink and rough house. It's not caused any real issues before.''
 
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about the plundering that took place?''
*'''William Howe:''' ''That's a serious accusation. I sincerely hope you have substantial evidence of my men doing such a thing. Before you continue to repeat those rumors.''
 
 
*'''Player:''' ''Tell me about yourself, Mr Washington.''
*'''George Washington:''' ''I'm George Washington, the commander of the Continental Army.''
 
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about Dash?''
*'''George Washington:''' ''All the water buckets had their handles cut off. Shoddy handling and protecting of his equipment. What is he playing at?''
 
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about Howe?''
*'''George Washington:''' ''His men were plundering houses the flames hadn't even reached yet! Not to mention the amount of patriots they've arrested under the guise of this \"fire\". Clearly they did this to line their own pockets and lower our numbers.''
 
*'''Player:''' ''How do you feel about the fire?''
*'''George Washington:''' ''I don't deny that I am pleased the city has burnt down. The loyalists have done us a great service; however, it was not me that did it.''
 
*'''Player:''' ''What do you know about the church bells that were removed?''
*'''George Washington:''' ''Yes, I had the bells moved to be melted down into cannons. But that was planned months ago; it has nothing to do with the fires.''
 
*'''Player:''' ''What do you think about the buildings that were destroyed?''
*'''George Washington:''' ''Those loyalists were smashing perfectly good houses to bits. The flames weren't anywhere near them!''
 
;Outcome
*Accused: John Baltus Dash
You have accused the Fire Chief of starting the fire. He buried his own valuables before the fire broke out, suggesting he knew what was coming, and, despite being a known loyalist, he didn't inform the British. His behavior is suspicious, but the evidence is circumstantial and not conclusive.
*Accused: General William Howe
You have accused the British forces of causing the fire, either through malice or incompetence. While British troops were seen looting buildings and numerous Revolutionary supporters were later arrested, the evidence against them remains circumstantial and inconclusive.
*Accused: General George Washington
You have accused the Revolutionary forces of being involved in deliberately starting the fire. General Washington's outspoken desire to deny the British the city, the presence of unexploded incendiaries, and the removal of church bells by American soldiers all point to planned sabotage - but the evidence remains circumstantial and inconclusive.
 
;Log
I spoke to people involved in the Great Fire of 1776. I successfully assisted with the investigation into the cause but could not conclusively identify the cause.

;Supplying the Revolution
In 1776, the large houses here along Broadway were used as locations to plan how to get supplies across the Atlantic. American forces were experiencing significant supply issues that threatened the course of the Revolution. With battles against British forces imminent and gunpowder supplies running low, work with Francis Lewis to plot a safe route.<br><br>Enter the docks of revolutionary era New York to begin planning the shipping route.<br><br>This memory has been created in partnership with the Welsh Government.
 
;Historical details
The Revolution was almost lost, not with a grand battle or cunning act of espionage, but with a shortage of supplies. When George Washington took command in 1775, he discovered the evolutionary army had a critical shortage of supplies. The shortages included food, clothing, and weaponry, however the most critical was with Gunpowder. With only 38 barrels of gunpowder, equivalent to just nine rounds per soldier, in the stores they were almost unable to fight the British. <br><br>America lacked the natural deposits of saltpeter that was needed to create their own and as a result they were reliant on imports, largely from their allies in France. These supplies were largely shipped across the Atlantic then via French colonies in the Caribbean. These routes sought to avoid the British blockades and seizures, a process that required a deep understanding of international shipping. <br><br>The newly formed American army turned to people like Francis Lewis, successful merchants who has taken up the patriot cause despite the risks to both their life and fortunes. This approach saw moderate success and led to several crucial clandestine shipments reaching America in 1777, supplies that enabled the army to engage in some of the most important early battles.
 
;Instructions
Objective
Help Captain Francis Lewis plan routes to move supplies from the Caribbean. These supplies that are critical to the Revolution.
 
Planning your route
To set your route, tap the Traverse board on the left of the table to input a direction.<br><br>Your ship will go in that direction until it hits a wall or obstacle.\nYou have a maximum of six inputs per voyage, so plan carefully.
 
Wind currents and ships
Wind currents push your ship without using up an input, so take advantage of them to travel further.<br><br>Be careful to avoid British ships along your journey.
 
Hint
If you need a hint tap the icon to see a possible route.
 
Setting sail
Once you're happy with your route, tap the tick button to start the voyage, you can press the reset icon to remove your inputs.
 
;What happens
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Start] ''Let me lend my expertise to help plot a route for the French supplies that the Revolution needs. Use the circular Traverse board on the left of the table to set a course.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 1 start] ''First we will need to work out a path for the goods from the Caribbean; this part should be simple enough. The French colonies there can provide us with immense amounts of gunpowder and other supplies. The main things to be aware of will be to work out the best route through the rocks.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 1 end] ''Well done; that will be the perfect route for the ship. There are four more stages to plot. The French support for the war is what allows us to bring these supplies from the Caribbean.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 2 start] ''The next step of the journey will require you to plot a route through the Windward Passage. You will need to be careful of both the rocks and the weather.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 2 end] ''That will work well by the look of it. You will need to plot three more steps. In the next step of the journey, we will need to move the goods up the Gulf Stream and up the coast.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 3 start] ''I know the risks of supporting the Revolution, but I cannot stand by when the Stamp Act is so unjust. You will need to be mindful of not just the rocks but British ships that will seize the cargo.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 3 end] ''Perfect, that is exactly what is needed. Almost there, two more to go. I've seen firsthand how a war is often decided by logistics, and this one is no different.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 4 start] ''Now let's plot a course that follows the coast up toward New York. You'll need to be aware of the risk of both the weather and of British ships in this leg of the journey.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 4 end] ''That's an excellent solution. Only one more step left now. With the last step of the journey, you'll need to move the supplies into a safe harbor in America.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 5 start] ''American forces are desperate for these supplies, their future depends on our success. You will need to contend with more British ships the closer you get to the destination. Good luck.''
*'''Francis Lewis:''' [Map 5 end] ''Excellent work. That route will take the supplies used where they are needed.''
 
;Outcome
*Supplies delivered safely!
Following your course, the ship delivered supplies to our Revolutionary forces in America. <br><br>With General Washington's supplies running dangerously low due to British blockades, this delivery could prove vital to the ongoing fight. Well done.
 
;Log
I worked with Welshman and Patriot Francis Lewis to plot a course for supplies from the French Caribbean to America. These supplies were critical for the ongoing war effort.
 
|-|Pole=
;Liberty Raised
In 1771, patriots gathered here, overlooking City Hall, to erect Liberty Poles in defiance of British rule. Tensions with the occupying forces were high. Alongside Sons of Liberty member Isaac Sears, design and raise a pole in protest at British occupation.<br><br>Enter the revolutionary era New York City Hall to begin raising a liberty pole.
 
;Historical details
After Parliament repealed the Stamp Act, New Yorkers marked the moment by raising what became known as a liberty pole on the Common, near where British soldiers drilled. \nIn the 1760s, new British taxes and trade regulations had sparked fierce protests, especially among maritime workers and laborers who felt the economic strain most directly. The streets were a battleground.<br><br>The tall white pine mast, timber normally reserved for Royal Navy ships, rose above the barracks with a flag proclaiming liberty. It was meant to provoke. British troops and Loyalists repeatedly cut the pole down, and each time supporters of the Patriot cause raised another. <br><br> The conflict escalated into street fighting known as the Battle of Golden Hill, often described as the first bloodshed of the Revolution in New York. During the later British occupation, liberty poles continued to appear as symbols of resistance. Some were reinforced with metal bands or greased to prevent soldiers from climbing them. These towering masts were more than protest signs. They were bold declarations that even under imperial authority, many New Yorkers refused to surrender the idea of self government.
 
;Instructions
Objective
The Sons of Liberty, alongside the famous revolutionary Hercules Mulligan designed and erected a Liberty Pole at this spot. <br><br>Join in and declare your defiance against British rule.
 
Designing
Tap the areas on the easel to customize your Liberty Pole. <br><br>You can choose the topper, defenses, and flag.
 
Finalizing
When you have finished designing, tap on the check mark on the paper at the bottom of the easel to finalize your Liberty Pole.
 
;What happens
*'''Hercules Mulligan:''' [start] ''Let's show those British clods that we'll not be cowed. Raise our Liberty Pole high and proud.''
*'''Hercules Mulligan:''' [first pole] ''The chiselers in the barracks will be furious at the use of the mast for a pole.''
*'''Hercules Mulligan:''' [first top] ''Be it a Liberty plaque or a red Cap of Liberty, our message to them couldn't be more clear.''
*'''Hercules Mulligan:''' [end] ''With every flag flown and every voice calling out in dissent, the support for the cause grows, my friend.''
 
;Outcome
*Liberty Pole Raised!
You successfully raised a Liberty Pole in front of the British barracks, sending a clear message to the occupying forces. It may be cut down, but a new one will be raised in its place.
 
;Log
Alongside Sons of Liberty member Isaac Sears, I designed and raised my own Liberty Pole in protest against British occupation.

;Nine Men's Morris
1779 New York, occupied by the British, was torn apart by war, its streets shared uneasily by loyalists, patriots, and those caught somewhere in between. Take a moment's respite from the simmering tensions to sit here at City Hall Park, and play Nine Men's Morris with people with differing opinions on the war.<br><br>Enter the streets and taverns of revolutionary era New York to find a game.
 
;Historical details
Nine Men’s Morris was a popular strategy game during the American Revolution and was played by soldiers and civilians alike. Boards were scratched into stone tavern tables, barrack walls, and public spaces across New York. Taverns and coffee houses were central gathering places where people shared news, argued politics, and passed the time. The rules of the game were simple: place your pieces carefully, block your opponent, and trap them until they could no longer move. But the strategy required patience and calculation. <br><br>In the 1770s, New Yorkers were engaged in a far more dangerous contest. Debates over Parliament’s taxes and British authority filled these same public spaces. When talk turned to independence, the city divided. Some residents still considered themselves British and supported the Crown. Others were uncertain, worried about challenging the world’s most powerful empire. Many favored resistance but disagreed about whether armed conflict was the answer. Class, occupation, faith, and neighborhood shaped opinion, and choosing a side carried real risk. Like Nine Men’s Morris, the struggle for New York required careful moves. One wrong decision could leave you exposed in a city where politics, loyalty, and survival were deeply intertwined.
 
;Instructions
Objective
As a keen Nine Men's Morris player, you must play against an opponent of your choosing. <br><br>Playing against different people will let you learn about life in New York during the occupation.
 
Placement
You and your opponent will take turns placing a man anywhere on the board. You both have a total of nine men each.
 
Mills
If a player creates a 'mill', by placing three of their men in a straight, non-diagonal row, they can remove one of their opponent's men that are not already in a mill. Mills can be made in any phase so watch where your opponent is placing their men and be sure to block any mills; otherwise, your men will be removed.
 
Movement
Once all pieces have been placed, players can move them one at a time by tapping on the piece they wish to move and shifting it into an adjacent empty space.
 
Flying
Once a player is down to three men, they can fly by moving their man to any empty space on the board.
 
Victory / defeat
Once a player is down to two men or unable to move, the other player wins.

*'''Abraham Woodhull:''' [2nd taken/yours] ''Now don't you be calling me a chiseler, this is naught but skill.''
*'''Abraham Woodhull:''' [3rd taken] ''Of course I fear arrest. I ain't no ninny. They round up fellows for the slightest suspicion these days and they have a terrible time of it.''
*'''Abraham Woodhull:''' [4th taken] ''Once the war is one ‘twill be a fairer place for all. Just you wait.''
*'''Abraham Woodhull:''' [end] ''Well played.''
 
;Outcome
*You lost!
Despite your best efforts, you've lost this game. Why not try again or face off against one of the other people from the city?
*It's a tie!
You and your opponent were evenly matched. Why not try again or face off against one of the other people from the city?
*You won!
Quick wit and smart strategy were needed to win the game. Why not try against one of the other people from the city?

|-|Press=
;Printing Pressure
You are standing on Hanover Square where printers used to work in the many buildings around this area. In 1775 tensions between Loyalists and Patriots were running high.  Printers were publishing the latest news arriving into the city on the packet ships. Take to the printing press, assemble different articles, and print your newspaper.<br><br>Enter the streets of revolutionary era New York and head towards the Hanover Square print shop.
 
;Historical details
By the mid eighteenth century, New York had become the communications capital of colonial America. With a regular packet ship connection to England, news from Europe arrived here first and spread outward to other colonies. At Hanover Square near the East River waterfront, merchants, sailors, and printers gathered to exchange information that shaped public opinion. <br><br>During the imperial crisis after 1763, printers played a powerful role in the growing debate over Britain’s authority. One of the most controversial was James Rivington. In 1773 he launched the New York Gazette, and its outspoken Loyalist tone won support from British officials while angering revolutionaries. In 1775 a Patriot mob destroyed his printshop and forced him to flee to London. <br><br>When British forces captured New York in 1777, Rivington returned as the King’s official printer, publishing newspapers that defended royal rule. Yet the story did not end there. Evidence later suggested that he secretly supplied information to George Washington’s spy network. In a city divided by war, the press became its own battlefield, and loyalty was often far more complicated than it first appeared.

Headers:
*New York Gazette
**The New-York Gazette and Weekly Mercury ran from February 1, 1768 to November 10, 1783, published by Hugh Gaine. Initially sympathetic to the Patriot movement, Gaine fled to Newark when the British captured New York, but returned in November 1776 and switched to publishing it as a Loyalist paper.
*New York Packet
**Founded in January 1776 by printer Samuel Loudon, the New York Packet ran until 1792. Loudon was a strong advocate for American independence and freedom of the press.
*Royal Gazette
**The Royal Gazette was published by Loyalist printer James Rivington in British-held New York City from 1777 to 1783. It was one of the most prominent Loyalist newspapers of the Revolutionary War period, serving as a mouthpiece for the British Crown during the occupation of New York.

The committee conceiving it to be the sense of the city that he should have such liberty, signified it to the Gentleman who is to supply him with provisions, and other necessaries. Advice of this was immediately dispatched to the Captain; and whenever he comes up, care will be taken that he does not enter at the custom-house, and that no time be lost in dispatching him.<br><br>New-York, April 19, 1774.
*This article is a poem on the importance of a responsible economic policy and the risks that are posed by the revolution.
**Let none, Economy, disdain to hear\nThy doctrines salutary, sage, and clear:\nOf them, observant thro’ our lives, we ne’er\nShall by grim Want be driv’n to despair?\nOf them observant, we, in ev’ry state,\nClass’d with the low, the little, or the great,\nShall keep in view the standard of expence,\nWhich proves the strongest, surest test of sense:\nIf we through weakness, vanity or pride,\nTake not that standard as a faithful guide,\nWe may, with all the wealth beneath the sun,\nBy false seducers lur’d, to ruin run:\nEven those who, pow’rful, keep the Treasury keys,\nThe nation’s wealth, dividing, as they please,\nWithout thy vital, influential aid,\nMay blast the best designs of lib’ral trade,\nAnd with the happiest measures the land to bless,\nFind numerous ways to spread around distress.
*This article, written by the newspaper printed James Rivington, advocates for the freedom of the press.
**To the Public.\nAs many Publications have appeared from my Press which have given great Offence to the Colonies, and particularly to many of my Fellow Citizens; I am therefore led, by a most sincere Regard for their favourable Opinion, to declare to the Public, that Nothing which I have ever done, has proceeded from any Sentiments in the least unfriendly to the Liberties of this Continent, but altogether from the Ideas I entertained of the Liberty of the Press, and of my duty as a Printer. <br><br>I am led to make this free and public Declaration to my Fellow Citizens, which I hope they will consider as a sufficient Pledge of my Resolution, for the future, to conduct my Press upon such Principles as shall not give Offence to the Inhabitants of the Colonies in general, and of this City in particular, to which I am connected by the tenderest of all human Ties, and in the Welfare of which I shall consider my own as inseparably involved.<br><br>James Rivington.\nNEW-YORK, April 27, 1775.\n
 
Cartoons:
*The American rattlesnake presenting Monsieur his ally a dish of frogs, London 1782
**This cartoon shows an American rattlesnake offering a basket of frogs to a French socialite. It mocks their reliance on each other and encourages Britain to oppose them both.
*The British Lion Engaging Four Powers, London 1782
**This cartoon shows Britain (depicted as a lion) fighting a coalition of Americans (a snake), Duch (a pug dog), Spanish (a spaniel), and French (a cockerel). The triumphant tone mocks the nations who sought to oppose Britain.
*The horse America, throwing his master, London, 1779
**This cartoon shows America as a wild horse violently throwing off its British rider. It  symbolizes the colonies rebelling against and rejecting British control during the Revolutionary War.
*Liberty Triumphant or the Downfall of Oppression, Boston 1774
**This cartoon shows the British Tea Tax as a plot by the Devil to destroy colonial liberty, while American colonists nobly defend their rights. It highlights the mounting tensions that lead to the Revolutionary War.
*Miss Carolina Sulivan - one of the obstinate daughters of America, London 1776
**This cartoon shows Sullivan's Island, portrayed as a head-and-shoulders portrait of a woman who looks like a leading British politician William Pitt. It mocks the British after the successful defense of the island by the Revolutionary forces.
*The political cartoon for the year 1775, London
**This cartoon shows King George III, depicted as overwhelmed and failing to control the rebellious American colonies. It highlights British anxiety and criticism of royal leadership at the outbreak of war.
*A Society of Patriotic Ladies at Edenton, North Carolina, London 1775
**This cartoon shows a group of colonial women singing a promise not to buy or use East India Company tea or English-made cloth. Its depiction mocks the American colonists as ugly, foolish, and misguided
*The Tea-Tax-Tempest, or Old Time with his Magick Lanthern
**This cartoon satirizes the causes and unfolding chaos of the American Revolution. It depicts Father Time, who uses an 18th-century projection lantern to cast a vision of the American Revolution. At the center of the projection is a teapot bursting into flames while a rooster (representing France) fans the flames, symbolizing French interference and their alliance with the American colonies. Alongside the screen Europe, Asia, Africa, and America are depicted as women watching this unfold.
*The Repeal: Or the Funeral Procession of Miss America-Stamp, 1766
**This cartoon shows politicians marching a child's coffin that represents the Stamp Act to a vault. It celebrates the restoration of trade and mocks the act's supporters.
*The Statue, London, 1766
**This cartoon shows British politicians kneeling before and adoring a statue of William Pitt the Elder. It mocks the political leaders responsible for the 1765 Stamp Act and celebrates the repeal of the deeply controversial American tax.
*The Tory's Day of Judgement, New York 1795
**This cartoon shows former Loyalists (“Tories”) facing public humiliation and punishment in a chaotic, almost apocalyptic scene. It reflects  a lingering post-Revolution resentment and the idea that Loyalists must answer for their allegiance to Britain by the Americans.
 
;Outcome
*Printing pressure
[LOYALIST] Your pro-British articles will find favor with some in New York, but should the British be defeated, expect trouble.
[REVOLUTIONARY] You've backed the Revolutionary cause with your published articles, winning favor with some in New York - as long as you can avoid being shut down or forced out of the city.
 
;Log
With tensions between Loyalists and Patriots running high in New York I joined the printers in Hanover Square and assembled different articles to print my own newspaper.
 
|-|Statue=
;Tearing down the King
The statue is gone now, but in 1776, revolutionary supporters gathered here on the Bowling Green, at the foot of the British-controlled fort, around a statue of King George. General Washington did one of the first readings of the Declaration of Independence here. Join the riot alongside Issac Sears and throw ropes onto the statue of King George to topple it.<br><br>Enter the streets of revolutionary era New York and head towards Bowling green.
 
;Historical details
On July 9, 1776, crowds gathered in what is now City Hall Park to hear the Declaration of Independence read aloud to Washington’s troops and the public. With those words, the colonies renounced their allegiance to King George III and declared themselves free states. The news echoed across a city already on edge, as British warships filled the harbor and redcoats stood in nearby barracks.<br><br>That evening, energized by the declaration, a group of sailors and laborers marched down Broadway to Bowling Green, just outside Fort George, the center of British power in New York. Inside the iron fence stood a towering gilded statue of King George III, erected only a few years earlier as a symbol of imperial authority. By torchlight, the crowd pulled the 4,000 pound lead statue from its pedestal and broke it apart while onlookers cheered. <br><br>The fragments were later sent to Connecticut, where much of the metal was melted down and recast into bullets for the Continental Army. In a single night, a royal monument became ammunition, and the Revolution in New York moved from bold words to visible defiance in the streets.
 
;Instructions
Objective
Rioters toppled the statue of King George at the Bowling Green.<br><br>Throw ropes onto the statue to pull it down.
 
Ropes
Tap and hold on the pile of ropes, then swipe toward the statue to throw and attach them.
 
Topple
Once three ropes are attached to the statue, rapidly tap the screen when prompted to topple it.
 
;What happens
*'''Isaac Sears:''' [Start] ''Right, chaps, you heard him; we have broken free of the tyranny of the King.''
*'''Isaac Sears:''' [FirstRope] ''Right, chaps, we'll need two more ropes to topple him.''
*'''Isaac Sears:''' [AllRopes] ''That should do it. Now pull with all your might, patriots!''
*'''Isaac Sears:''' [PullStart] ''He's starting to topple. Keep at it and show them our commitment to independence.''
*'''Isaac Sears:''' [PullSecond] ''We almost have it down. Pull!''
*'''Isaac Sears:''' [Topple] ''This is where it starts; we'll cast this into bullets and send them to the King one shot at a time.''
 
;Outcome
*Statue Toppled
The statue of King George has been toppled! The conviction of New York to oppose the occupation by the British forces and resist their tyranny has been made clear to all.
 
;Log
Joining the riot in front of the British fort, I worked with Patriot Isaac Sears and toppled the statue of King George.
 
|-|Turtle=
;The Turtle
In 1776, with American forces in control of New York, Sergeant Lee launched David Bushnell's newly invented Turtle submersible along this bank overlooking the East River. Pilot it undetected beneath the Royal Navy ships, in an attempt to sink the British flagship.<br><br>Enter the docks of revolutionary era New York and head to the Turtle launch location.
 
;Historical details
In 1775, inventor David Bushnell created a remarkable new weapon that looked more like a wooden barrel than a machine of war. Called the Turtle, it is considered the world’s first military submarine. Powered by hand and foot, the one person vessel included ballast pumps to control depth, a compass, a depth gauge, and an early screw propeller. Bushnell designed it to carry an explosive charge that could be attached to the hull of a British warship, hoping to disrupt the blockade tightening around New York. <br><br>When Bushnell fell ill, the mission fell to a young volunteer, Ezra Lee. In September 1776, after the British captured the city, Washington approved an attack on General William Howe’s flagship, the 64 gun HMS Eagle. Under cover of darkness, Lee pedaled from the Battery toward the massive warship and attempted to drill into its hull to secure the explosive. A metal plate prevented him from attaching the charge, and as he surfaced, British guards began to stir. Lee released the timed device and escaped. The explosion caused little damage, but the attempt was groundbreaking. <br><br>Though the Turtle saw limited use before being lost later that year, it marked the beginning of underwater warfare and showcased American ingenuity in desperate times.
 
;Instructions
Objective
Take on the role of Sergeant Lee and navigate the Turtle submersible through the Royal Navy blockade to the British flagship, the HMS Eagle.
 
Entering
To start, approach the Turtle and tap on it to board.
 
Movement
Tap the highlighted levers to access the controls. You can control the direction and propulsion with the slider.
 
Navigation
Use the map to track your position and the British ships.
 
Detection and hazards
Be careful to avoid hazards such as rocks and anchors from the British ships. You can check for ships and rocks on your map.
 
The Bomb
When you reach the British flagship, tap on the highlighted handle to activate the drill and attempt to attach the bomb.
 
;What happens
*'''Designer:''' [start] ''Greetings, Sergeant. Board the submersible when you are ready to start your mission. The weather is good, but you will need to rely on your compass and map. Good luck!''
 
*'''Pilot:''' [start] ''I'm glad I've got a little light from the fungi. Without that, it would be awfully dark down here.''
*'''Pilot:''' [quarter] ''Once I've sunk the British flagship, we’ll be striking a blow at the British and raising morale. I've just got to avoid detection.''
*'''Pilot:''' [half] ''I don't think I'll ever get used to these controls. Bushnell may be a genius, but this is not exactly simple.''
*'''Pilot:''' [three quarters] ''Almost there now, not much further to go.''
*'''Pilot:''' [Flagship] ''There is their flagship! Now to attach the bomb with the right hand lever.''
*'''Pilot:''' [bomb] ''Darn it all. I've succeeded in getting here but the bomb won't affix!''
 
;Outcome
*Mission Failed!
**Collided with hazard
The Turtle struck a hazard underwater, forcing you to abandon the mission.<br><br>Despite the ingenuity of the newly created submersible, the controls were undeniably difficult to use.
**Alerted the British
The turtle got too close to the British ships, alerting them of your presence.<br><br>Despite the ingenuity of the newly created submersible, the controls were undeniably difficult to use.
**Left mission area
You abandoned the mission.
**Failed to plant bomb
Despite your best efforts, you failed to plant a bomb.
 
*Mission Succeeded!
**Target reached
You successfully navigated the hazards in the East River and reached the Flagship undetected.<br><br>However, the bomb failed to affix, you had no choice but to deploy it and abandon the mission.
 
;Log
I piloted David Bushnell's newly invented Turtle submersible undetected beneath the Royal Navy ships in the blockade. I came close to sinking the British flagship but the bomb didn't affix and I had to abandon my mission.
