Questions: 1) How did France help the USA during the American revolution? 2) Why did this help occur? 3) What did the USA give in return?

Answers: 1) France sent troops to fight alongside the United States against the British. 2) Because France wanted to weaken the British empire. 3) The USA gave France the chance to recover the territories it lost to England during the 7-year war.

Explanation:

As you may already know, France and England were the countries involved in the war of the seven years, which caused the defeat of France and caused the country to lose some territories to England. Meanwhile, France was looking for a way to get revenge and recover its lost territories and saw in the USA a way to make that happen.

This is because the USA (until then the 13 American colonies) was organizing itself to generate a conflict that would free them from British colonialism. However, they had a small and inefficient army to fight against a potential that was England. So France decided to help, releasing troops and ammunition, to weaken England and regain its territories.
