The correct answer to the question: After the Treaty of Paris was signed, about 90.000 loyalists became refugees. Where did about half of them resettle?, would be: in Canada, mostly, Nova Scotia and the Province of Quebec.

Explanation:

After the success of the American Revolution, and with the signing of the Treaty of Paris, there was a good number of American settlers who did not wish to renounce their loyalty to the English crown. These were dubbed as Loyalists. This group of people, though American in origin, were no longer accepted in the newly established nation, and thus were forced to leave the country. The largest number of them went towards British colonies in Canada, particularly Nova Scotia, and also the Province of Quebec, while some decided to move on to England.

The correct answer is Canada.

While some went to the United Kingdom after the war, many took boats out of American cities and ended up in Halifax, now in Nova Scotia, before spreading out throughout what is today Canada.
