In what way were the new forms of city government established during the Progressive Era different from those that preceded them
lisabon 2012 [21]

The Progressive Era of the United States was part of an era from 1890 to 1920 when many american countries were seeking to modernize government and streamline democracy, in latin america many of the newly founded democracies were dealing in this period with social movements that demanded parties and offices to no longer be held by oligarchies. In the U.S. progressists hoped to create, through political, economical and social reforms, a more just, efficient and inclusive government, actively opposing corruption and the established political machinery, in that way they sought to be better able to bring about positive change.

Some of the national-level reforms realized by progressists are: the imposition of income tax, direct election of senators, prohibition, anti-fraud election reforms and legalizing women's vote.

List three<br> reasons that Loyalists sided<br> with Britain
alexdok [17]

Answer:

Loyalists were American colonists who stayed loyal to the British Crown during the American Revolutionary War, often called Tories, Royalists, or King's Men at the time. They were opposed by the "Patriots", who supported the revolution, and called them "persons inimical to the liberties of America".[1] Prominent Loyalists repeatedly assured the British government that many thousands of them would spring to arms and fight for the crown. The British government acted in expectation of that, especially in the southern campaigns in 1780–81. In practice, the number of Loyalists in military service was far lower than expected since Britain could not effectively protect them except in those areas where Britain had military control. The British were often suspicious of them, not knowing whom they could fully trust in such a conflicted situation; they were often looked down upon.[2] Patriots watched suspected Loyalists very closely and would not tolerate any organized Loyalist opposition. Many outspoken or militarily active Loyalists were forced to flee, especially to their stronghold of New York City. William Franklin, the royal governor of New Jersey and son of Patriot leader Benjamin Franklin, became the leader of the Loyalists after his release from a Patriot prison in 1778. He worked to build Loyalist military units to fight in the war, but the number of volunteers was much fewer than London expected.

When their cause was defeated, about 15 percent of the Loyalists (65,000–70,000 people) fled to other parts of the British Empire, to Britain itself, or to British North America (now Canada). The southern Loyalists moved mostly to Florida, which had remained loyal to the Crown, and to British Caribbean possessions, often bringing along their slaves. Northern Loyalists largely migrated to Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. They called themselves United Empire Loyalists. Most were compensated with Canadian land or British cash distributed through formal claims procedures. Loyalists who left the US received £3 million[citation needed] or about 37 percent of their losses from the British government. Loyalists who stayed in the US were generally able to retain their property and become American citizens.[3] Historians have estimated that between 15 and 20 percent of the two million whites in the colonies in 1775 were Loyalists (300,000–400,000).[4]
