Explain why many Loyalists sided with Britain and how the war affected them
What will be an ideal response?
Students should note a number of reasons why Loyalists chose their course. These might be economic, political, or personal ties to Britain. Also some regions tended to have more Loyalists than others, so students should explain why this occurred. Having established the reasons, students should examine the Loyalist experience in different regions of the colonies. While Tories in New York generally lived comfortably, those in the South fought a vicious guerilla war with their Patriot neighbors. Finally, students must explain how Loyalists suffered, both economically and personally, as a result of the Patriot victory.
