Trivia: The Earl of Chatham --- William Pitt the Elder --- warned the British House of Lords on the 20nd of November, 1777, that victory over the rebellion in the American colonies would be impossible. He did not yet know of the American victory in the Battle of Saratoga, which would bring France into the war on the American side.
