Answer:

OK

Step-by-step explanation:

The main conflicts were caused by religious differences, England is mado of protestants and Spain, France and Portugal made of Catholics, that was the point. People got more freedon and less fear to say what they think and want, the nobles had to accept and adapt to that, if they fought back they could loose control, because of that the only possibility was accepting and adapting.

The ones who were not satisfied had another solution, they went to The New World, fight for their rights and what they thought were good for them, their families and beliefs.

Protestantism in France compelled the Huguenots to look for refuge in America. Protestantism in England resulted in a Conflict with Spain which was predominantly Catholic. This made them compete in commerce in the New World. The rise in inflation and poverty in England led to a need to search for more resources
