Yet even the political overturn was not so【S9】as one might suppose. In some states, notably Connecticut and Rhode Island, the war largely ratified a colonial self-rule already existing. British officials, everywhere ousted, were【S10】by a home-grown governing class, which promptly sought a local substitute for king and parliament.
