Explanation:

Today's Americans often regard the War of Independence as a revolution, but in some important ways it was also a civil war. American legalists, or "Tories," as their opponents called them, opposed the revolution, and many took up arms against the rebels.

About 100,000 legalists left the country, including William Franklin, son of Benjamin, and John Singleton Copley, the most important American painter of the time. The majority went to Canada. Some came back later, though several state governments forbade legalists from gaining public office. In the decades after the revolution, Americans preferred to forget the legalists. With the exception of Copley, they were ignored by American history.
