Where loyalist punished after the Revolutionary War?

Answer 1

Different things happened to some of the loyalists. Some of them fled back to England. Others were caught and had their property taken from them. Some were even exiled, which, in a time with unexplored territory, was a rather gruesome fate.

Answer 2

In the end, many Loyalists simply left America. About 80,000 of them fled to Canada or Britain during or just after the war. Because Loyalists were often wealthy, educated, older, and Anglican, the American social fabric was altered by their departure.
