A problem for the new nation after the war was that thousands of wealthy loyalists:
Savatey [412]

A major problem for the United States after the Revolutionary War (1775-1783) was that tens of thousands of Loyalists, due to the climate of violence and fear that still existed after the conflict (particularly in the South), fled the country, retreating with the British army to Britain and other parts of the British Empire (Jamaica, Bahamas, India) and also to Canada, settling primarily in the regions of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. Since those Loyalists were often wealthy and educated, and they had been part of the thriving and cohesive upper class that controlled much of the industry and the commerce in areas such as New York or Boston, the social structure of the colonies changed significantly after their departure.

Coronado's expedition became the first group of Europeans to see the Grand Canyon. What do you think the experience was like for
Scrat [10]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Spanish explorer Francisco Vázquez Coronado was leading an expedition from México to modern-day Arizona's territory in 1540, trying to find the mysterious cities of Cibola when they found the Grand Canyon and traveled through the Colorado River.

It must have been a wonderful moment of discovery for the Spanish conquerors. To be in front of that majestic sightseeing, speechless, contemplating this nature's wonder never before seen or imagined for them. We could say they were in shock!

Something similar happened to me when I visited the Great City of Teotihuacan, in México. It is an impressive archeological site built by the Teotihucans in central Mexico. The Aztecas found this place abandoned in the 1400s when they were traveling from Aztlán to the Texcoco Lake, where they founded the great city of Tenochtitlan. The capital city of the Aztec Empire.

When I saw the big pyramid of the moon, I was surprised. But when I saw the huge Pyramid of the Sun, I was in shock! It was simply, extraordinary. The architectonic perfection, the symmetry, the proportions, the height. I just wondered how did these people built these magnificent pyramids and temples thousands of years ago, when they did not have the technology we have today.
