I was wondering, why do we light off fireworks for the 4th of July celebrations?

The idea behind 4th of July celebrations is that when people fought the English during the American Revolution, the colonists won.  It was a big milestone in American history.  There was a ceremony when they won, and people are still doing it as a celebration.
