1 gen 1630 anni - Massachusetts Bay Colony

Descrizione:

In 1630, another group of Puritans sailed to North America. Like the Pilgrims, they came to practice their religion without fear of punishment. They started a settlement called the Massachusetts Bay Colony. By 1640, more than 20 000 English settlers lived there. The region would become known as New England.

Unlike Jamestown settlers, Puritans were well prepared to live in this new land. They were organized and had many supplies.
