    Patriots were supporters of independence and Loyalists were opponents of American independence. The patriots mainly included farmers, small traders, and blacksmiths who lived in New York, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, as well as planters of Virginia and South Carolina.

    The Loyalists ranks included major merchants of port cities - Boston, Charleston, New York, fur traders, and administration officials. The Loyalists did not accept the idea of rebellion and considered the resistance to the British authorities as treason. They understood that under the circumstances existed, the revolution was inevitable; however, they did not see in it pragmatic measures against the colonialists. They predicted chaos, the rule of crowd and tyranny.
