Question

Which colonial region and religious group are matched correctly? A) New England—Quakers. B) Middle Atlantic—Puritans. C) Southern—Quakers. D) New England—Puritans

Answer 1

New England--Puritans

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have this question on Study Island, this is correct and also...

The Puritans founded the New England colonial region. They were very religious people. England persecuted the Puritans, so they came to America for religious freedom, yet they were not tolerant of any other religion than their own.

Answer 2

Quakers had their own colony - Pennsylvania, and they often settled in Rhode Island, but they were persecuted in Massachussets so both C and A are wrong.

The Puritans settled mostly in New England, so the correct answer is D.
For example, the Massachussets Bay Colony and Connecticut were to a great degree established by the Puritans.
