Answer: Puritan values

Step-by-step explanation:

The Puritans were a group of Christians who believed that when the Church of England separated from the Catholic church, they did not do a good enough job of separating and still had too many Catholic customs. They were therefore a minority and wanted to go to a place where they could practice their version of Christianity in peace.

With that in mind they settled in the New England colonies of Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Plymouth and New Hampshire. These governments therefore practiced puritan values.
