Re: "It doesn't matter what follows it."

Of course it does, clearly, that is CENTRAL to the question "what would result?"

Re: "It is not a comment on what political institution, if any, exists after the armed
insurrection."

Was not the question essentially, "what results from.."

If so, your question indeed implied a question of what comes AFTER, for all living through such an event- at least that was my interpretation. It seems you wished to describe only the battle itself.

One more, Re: "The
American Revolutionaries would never have overthrown the King of England in England."

Probably not, but we'll, we'll never know. They were pretty fed up in England, and if they didn't have a place to risk there lives to run off to.... ???

Substantial basic agreement here, all in all, none-the-less. I was just wanting to point out that an armed insurrection might result in something better indeed, not necessarily anarchy at all. At least, it's within the realm of possibilities.
