Answer:

Puritanism.

Step-by-step explanation:

Puritanism emerged in the last quarter of the sixteenth century in response to the mainstream of the Anglican Church. The Puritans believed that too many Roman elements had been preserved in the Anglican Church and also argued for a more personal experience of the Christian faith (conversion and rebirth) and a stricter life course (sanctification).

Several Puritans were the founding fathers of New England states, an example of this being John Winthrop who was governor of Massachusetts Bay Colony. Their vision has long dominated American thinking.
