Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The American Revolution had some impact on British policy in the short term, leading to the passage of some modest reforms such as the Quebec Act and Catholic Emancipation Act. However, it did not lead to a significant pace of reform nor did it quickly achieve the aims of movements such as the Yorkshire Movement. It also did not lead to a reactionary period in the immediate aftermath of the revolution.
