Respuesta :

Many loyalists fled to Canada after the American Revolution.

Answer: C) They fled to Canada to avoid punishment.

Explanation:

The loyalists fled to Canada after the American Revolution. As the American Revolution gave freedom to the enslaved Africans and Indians Around 80,000 of them fled to Canada and Britain. Because they were wealthy, educated and older.

They often suffered bad treatment from the patriots and therefore, had to flee from their own homes. Even after the war there were some people who remained loyal to the British crown. And so the American colonists would often treat them brutally.

Answer:

Loyalists fled to Canada in order to avoid punishment. So, Option D.

________________________________________________

"Why?"

Toward the end of the American Revolution, loyalists fled America. It was estimated about 80,000 ran to Britain, as well as Canada directly after and during the war. Considering loyalists were often rich in wealth, as well as intelligent, wiser, and Anglican, the American social fabric was substituted due to their departure. Hence, American history from that point forward listed them as traitors.
