The Colonial Period in America's history found people becoming patriots for two primary reasons. The first was quite natural: as new generations were born into the new land, allegiances to that land (no longer "new" but rather "their own") outgrew allegiances to any other. The second was brought on by repressive British rule and unwillingness to reform it, which fed the colonists' desire to rule themselves.
