Which of the following was an effect of the fall of charles town?
a. the city of savannah, georgia, fell to the british
b. thousands of american troops and leaders were captured
c. slaves were allowed to join the army as cooks or engineers
d. the patriots defeated the british army at the battle of saratoga

Correct answer choice is :

When the announcement of the fall of Charleston led the upcountry the Whig population was considerably frightened.  And their confusion was by no means diminished by the accounts of ravages performed by the successful troops of Britain and the presumption of the Loyalists who thought proper no longer to hide their service to the royal purpose.  As a large number of these had formerly preserved a strict impartiality under the assumption of being non‑soldiers and as they now considered but little suspense of success on the part of the British, they just need to display a great enthusiasm for the party in power to throw the darkness of obscurity over their past lukewarmness and meet the agents of government as though they were and ever had been the very champions of England.
