Trivia: Which European country fought alongside Britain during the war?
Germany
Russia
Turkey
Norway
The correct answer is Germany
So why is this answer correct? : Unlike Spain and France, both of which sided with the American colonists, Germany sent troops to support the British Army. The largest contribution came from the state of Hesse-Cassel, which is why the Germans who served with the British were known as “Hessians.” In total, around 30,000 Hessians fought for King George III.
