Answer:

In Britain the people were under control. To seek freedom they fled for a better life and free religion. Those are some states that are part of the New England area.

Answer:

All but New Hampshire were founded as havens for various religious groups, including Puritans, Separatists, and Quakers.

Many of the colonies were founded by religious leaders or groups looking for religious freedom. To seek freedom they fled for a better life.

These colonies included Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Maryland, Rhode Island, and Connecticut.
