The term "loyalist" by itself just means "loyal to the government in power". As a result, the term's meaning is situational (i.e. based on the circumstances in question).

The Loyalists in the American Revolution were those colonists that thought that the colonies should stay in control of England.

The Loyalists in the French Revolution were those Frenchmen who supported the monarchy.
