Lord Baltimore (the younger) was a convert to Catholicism. This was a severe stigma for a nobleman in 17th century England, where Roman Catholics lacked civil rights and were widely considered enemies of the crown and traitors to their country. In Maryland, Baltimore sought to create a haven for Catholics of familial connection.
The Wars of the Three Kingdoms were an intertwined series of conflicts that took place in Scotland, Ireland, and England between 1639 and 1651 at a time when these countries had come under the Personal Rule of the same monarch. The best known of these conflicts is the English Civil War. The wars were the outcome of tensions between king and subjects over religious and civil issues. Religious disputes centered on whether religion was to be dictated by the monarch or the choice of the subject, who had a direct relationship with God. The related civil questions were to what extent the king's rule was constrained by parliaments — in particular his right to raise taxes and armed forces without consent. In addition, the wars also had an element of national conflict, as Ireland and Scotland rebelled against England's primacy within the Three Kingdoms. The victory of the English Parliament — ultimately under Oliver Cromwell — over the King, the Irish and the Scots helped to determine the future of Britain as a constitutional monarchy with power centred on London.

The King of England thought he should be over the church and the pope under him. The pope thought he should be over the church and the king under him. They split. England set up the Archbishop of Canterbury to be the head of the Anglican church, and the Pope remained head of the Catholic church. The Catholics left England for more hospitable places.

Oliver Cromwell, the leader of the Puritans, took over and set up a dictatorship, and they didn't like it, so they moved. We just studied all that in history. Good luck on your essay!
