The "American Revolution" was just a struggle for independence. The "revolution" in the true sense assumes a change in values on multiple levels.

The intelectual pilar of the American Revolution was a manuscript called Common Sense by Thomas Paine where the changes in values where outlined.

Calling it just a struggle for independence says nothing about why they were struggling to be independent.
