Cevap

The remaining territories remained under British rule and became a destination for many who wished to stay part of the Empire, eventually forming part of Canada.
The correct answer is correct because while the thirteen colonies gained their independence in 1783, the British government retained control over its northern territories. These areas became the primary refuge for Loyalists—colonists who did not want to leave the British Empire—and these northern colonies eventually formed the nation of Canada.
