Explanation:

The main reason why many enslaved people decided to join the British forces during the Revolutionary War was because they were seeking liberty. The slave population believed that they had better chances of being able to gain liberty if they were to side with the British forces. This was mostly a decision based on Dunmore's Proclamation, in which John Murray, 4th Early of Dunmore promised freedom to slaves who escaped from their masters and joined the Royal Army.
