Answer:

  • Massachusetts Bay Colony
  • Connecticut Colony

Step-by-step explanation:

The Puritans were the driving force behind early colonization of the Americas. After Jamestown and Plymouth became successful, Puritans under John Winthrop went on to establish the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1629 and their number grew fast.

Another set of Puritans then waged war against the Native Americans known as the Pequots and upon conquering them, drove them from their land and set up the Connecticut Colony.
