Question

What happened to the Plymouth Colony over time?

Answer 1

D. It became part of the Massachusetts Bay Colony populated by more moderate Puritans.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is what I found:

...but the colony was ultimately merged with the Massachusetts Bay Colony and other territories to form the Province of Massachusetts Bay.

...The Puritans established the colony of Massachusetts Bay in 1630. They hoped to purify the Church of England, and then return to Europe with a new and improved religion. The Puritans had left England because they didn't agree with the Church of England and they wanted to practice their own faith.

It's not a lot, but I hope that it helps. The other answers do not make as much sense. I also do not recall them. Though E does sound reasonable, I would still go with D because of the information provided.

Answer 2

The Plymouth Colony is considered to be one of the earliest settlements of the British Empire in the North American continent which was started during the 17th century. Among the important events that happened in the colony is that it was the Puritan Separatists from England who first arrived in the settlement.
