The Revolutionary War was a time of great division. Americans were split into two groups: Patriots and Loyalists. Patriots were Americans who supported the struggle for independence. They believed that Americans should be free from the control of an English king. They fought against the English to establish a new government in America. Loyalists were Americans who remained loyal to the crown. Some of them were happy under English rule. Others believed that they might be rewarded after the Americans lost the war. Though both Patriots and Loyalists lived in America, a deep division ran between them.

Although it may be tempting, eating too much candy
can have a negative impact on your body and how you
feel. Munching on too much candy can cause cavities
in your teeth from all of the sugar. It is also very high
in “empty” calories, which means the calories provide
you no nutrients, just fat and calories from sugar!
This can cause you to gain too much unhealthy weight.
Too much sugar can also cause you to have a “foggy”
brain, slowing down your memory and making you
tired.
