Who were the 'Loyalists'?

  1. Soldiers loyal to the British Empire

  2. American settlers in Quebec

  3. People loyal to the Crown fleeing American Revolution oppression

  4. French settlers opposing British rule

The correct answer is: People loyal to the Crown fleeing American Revolution oppression

The Loyalists were a group of people who remained loyal to the British crown during the American Revolution and chose not to support the revolution. Option A is incorrect because it refers to soldiers, rather than a group of people. Option B is incorrect because it only mentions American settlers in Quebec, rather than a group of people across the 13 colonies. Option D is incorrect because it refers to opposing British rule, instead of remaining loyal to it. Option C is the best answer as it accurately describes the Loyalists as a group of people who remained loyal to the British crown and fled the 13 colonies to seek refuge in British territories, such as Canada.
