@schneidersjong the english way of pronuncing it is Hesch-in[or atleast the american way] The German way should be Hess-en :P, but you are correct the name of the state and its poeple is hessen and hessens, Hessian is more used to refer these guys

For the record, Hessians were not slaves - armies were recruited voluntarily not by conscription. Nor were they mercenaries - they were subjects of King George in the same way British troops were - and, for that matter, as the rebels ('Americans') were. Hessian units were often excellent - which is why the rebels feared them. And please note that the rebels had French and Spanish allies - its why they were able to stalemate (not beat) the British and America got its independence.

@onegin 1971. I completely agree! The only colonials that were against Britain were rich land owners!
