Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is B, a place where English Catholics could be safe.

Founded in 1634 by Lord Baltimore, Maryland was a colony meant as a safe haven for Catholics. Feudalism was the main system of government practiced here, and many of the target residents were Catholics.
