Chapter 9 (13th)
The Confederation and the Constitution
The Pursuit of Equality
American Revolution was not a sudden radical change. Rather it was an accelerated evolution.
Separation of church and state began. The "high-church" Anglican Church was disestablished (it stopped receiving tax money) although the Congregational Church continued is established status. The Anglican Church also became known as the Episcopal Church in order to distance itself from its English roots.
To a large degree, life went on as usual—work, church, play.
A change occurred in that with 80,000 Loyalists gone, a large chunk of the conservative wing was absent.
"Equality" was the buzzword of the day.
