The Loyalists were the people who remained loyal to the British Crown rather than were in favour of independence.

The Loyalist were on the average older and partially also richer: they were better established and therefore a change would be a risk for them. This was their reason: they were afraid of change and of loosing their position.

The Loyalists are those American people who strongly opposed the Revolution. They are being called as "Tories" by their enemies. The Loyalists believed in the John Locke's theory of natural rights and limited government. They only wanted to pursue a peaceful form of protest because  of their belief that violence is not the answer to the complaints thus, it will only give way to tyranny that would even cause greater protests from the people. Some loyalists remain loyal to the King because they believed of what the King has to offer and they believe they have the same goals and visions as of the King's.

In your opinion, how have these changes affected American society? Consider the family structure, economic health, and the stren
KIM [24]

Changes in American society modified the social, economic and political and family structure of the nation.

The effects of the industrial revolution in the Northern states made possible great advances in trade and travel, allowing more people to move from one place to another in less time, and the generation of job opportunities for many people that before that time, were only limited to his own area or farming jobs.

Industrialization modified the role of woman in the family. Previously, women limited its participation only as a mother. But after World War I, they started to occupy positions in new professions and they expressed themselves through fashion and style.

Minorities and the access to labor in factories and industry in general was a notorious advancement in the consolidation of the U.S. as a modern society. Although the many racial problems the nation is still facing, Black people and Hispanic people have made a great contribution to the American economy.

Free trade and NAFTA has allowed the three countries -Mexico, Canada, and the U.S.- to have a true strength in commerce that shows the world that North America is a leading force in world trade. This caused the admiration of other countries in different continents, and one way or the other, some have tried to emulate the formula.

Immigration has marked the history of the U.S. Not only from Latin America, but the United States was formed by immigrants: English, Italians, Mexicans, Japanese and many more that are an active part of the economy and culture of the country.

Was the statue of Zeus at Olympia effective for its stated purpose
Tpy6a [65]
It was. The statue of Zeus at Olympia, carved out by the sculptor named Phidias in around 435 BC, was a majestic statue and was considered to be one of the wonders of the ancient world. It raised awe and made peopel forget their earthly troubles, as one Greek orator noted. Sadly, there are no remains of this statue to be found anymore.

How we’re hanging china and roman empire similar ? different ?
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Both the Roman and Han economies were in large part based on agriculture.  Sea trade was less expensive than land trade and the fact that Rome was more of a naval empire than the Han Dynasty meant that commerce played a greater role in the Roman economy.

What was the long term result of the sumerians working together?
cupoosta [38]

Well, the Sumerians were very hard working and inventive people; most of their inventions are actually used today by almost everyone! (If you didn’t already know) Sumerians invented the first written language, cuneiform, the wheel, the sail boat, the game “Checkers” and much more.  

By Sumerians working together they not only created those things, but they also started trading with others which fulfilled them with much needed food, clothing, and raw materials. So by them opening up to trade, they were able to prosper longer.  

I hope this helps what you are looking for!
