What main political groups existed in the colonies in the 1770s, and how did they get their names?

The right answer is **"The Patriots and the Loyalists." **
These two political parties emerged within the 13 British colonies that were in American territory.
Many people within the colonies felt discontent with the way in which Britain administered the colonies and began to experience feelings of hostility and the desire to achieve independence, the political party that shared this ideal were the Patriots.
On the other hand, the Loyalists was the political party that wanted the continuity of the colonies and considered the government of Great Britain fair. This provoked a war of independence between 1765 and 1783 that finally resulted in the independence of the colonies from the control of Great Britain. I hope this information can help you.

In the 1770s, two main political groups in the colonies were the Patriots, who sought independence from Britain, and the Loyalists, who remained loyal to the British crown. These names signify their respective allegiances, with the Patriots advocating for self-governance and the Loyalists supporting British rule. The conflict between these groups played a significant role in the American Revolutionary War.
