During the American Revolution, large numbers of colonists remained loyal to Great Britain even after hostilities had broken out for various reasons. Some did not believe that colonists were capable of self-government. Some had too much respect for the age and stability of the British Empire. Others were concerned about the economic trouble that would follow from separating from Britain. Still others were simply following the decision taken by respected family members or civic leaders. Many other practical and principled reasons motivated the Loyalists, as well.
