Fact: Loyalty=% of population in your city out of the population limit. For example, 80% loyalty=80% of the population limit is filled.
So if your population limit is 1000, your population will be 800.
That is, if your loyalty is 80.

Q: How do I get prestige fast?
Have less total cities with a low total town hall level between them.
Hope that helps.
