You wish the American Revolution had never happened, so we could all have cool accents, amirite?

The Founding Fathers, most of who were born in England, had British accent. We don't have British accents simply because we don't live in Britain and we developed a different way of speaking.

The current American accent was the one our founding fathers and the people in Britan had during that time. The current English accent evolved years after the revolution.

just frickin move to Britain if you want one of their accents. And I personally prefer the Aussie accent, fyi.

But just think for a minute, if it didn't happen, and we were still under British rule, we wouldn't have the American food that we have today. And in my opinion, from what I've had of it, most British food is terrible.

America gaining its independence from Britain was inevitable.

I heard somewhere that what we know as "British" accents were developed after the American Revolution.
