Answer 2

The cause, simply, was a semi-successful coup de etat. Cromwell was one of the architects of the execution of Charles I, and it was Cromwell who ascended to power after. His allegience with the Puritan opened the door for them to impliment their social reforms.

"One of the main beliefs of the Puritans was that if you worked hard, you would get to Heaven. Pointless enjoyment was frowned upon. Cromwell shut many inns and the theatres were all closed down. Most sports were banned. Boys caught playing football on a Sunday could be whipped as a punishment. Swearing was punished by a fine, though those who kept swearing could be sent to prison."

"Sunday became a very special day under he Puritans. Most forms of work were banned. Women caught doing unnecessary work on the Holy Day could be put in the stocks. Simply going for a Sunday walk (unless it was to church) could lead to a hefty fine."

But, after Cromwell's death, the Puritanical reforms were overthrown. So hated were the reforms, and Cromwell that "Cromwell was buried in Westminster Abbey. This is where kings and queens were buried. His son, Richard, took over leadership of the country. However, Richard was clearly not up to the task and in 1660 he left the job. In that year, 1660, Charles II was asked to return to become king of England. One of Charles’ first orders was that Cromwell’s body should be dug up and put on 'trial' as a traitor and regicide (someone who is responsible for the execution/murder of a king or queen). His body was put on trial, found guilty and symbolically hanged from a gallows at Tyburn (near Hyde Park, London). What was left of his body remains a mystery. Some say the body was thrown on to a rubbish tip while others say it was buried beneath the gallows at Tyburn. His head was put on display in London for many years to come"

The cause, therefore, is that they were driven out of England. They went off to the Americas likely because no one else would let them land on their shores.

Answer 3

If you are speaking of the colonists that left England to find religious freedom:

They established the first colony in what would become the United States. If they hadn't come, history would be totally different, this country would be totally different.

They arrived late in the year, didn't have much time to grow crops and prepare for winter and many suffered and died.
