Yes I agree that religion was the most important factor that was used in the explanations that was done in the Witch hunts in the period mentioned.

I agree to a very great extent on this.

<h3>What role did religion play in the Witch hunts?</h3>

Religion was the factor that was used to explain the behavior of the people at the time that had hysterias that was classified as witch craft.

These people were tried and then declared as guilty using Biblical terms and laws as the basis of doing so. A lot of these women lost their lives in the process because they were staked.

The religion that was known to be common with this belief was Christianity at the time. Both the Catholics and the protestant Christians.

This is likened to what had happened at the Salem witch trials were women were accused of being witchjes and they were killed for this fact.

Hence we would say that religion is a factor that played out in the Witch trials that happened in this period of time.

After the Civil War, the Seminole government was divided because of a split between __________ factions.
8090 [49]
<span>The term "Seminole" is a derivative of "cimarron" which means "wild men" in Spanish. The original Seminoles were given this name because they were Indians who had escaped from slavery in the British-controlled northern colonies. When they came to Florida, they were not called Seminoles as they were actually Creeks, Indians of Muskogee derivation. The Muskogean tribes comprised the Mississipian culture which were temple-mound builders. Among the Muskogean tribes were the Creeks, Hitichis and Yamasees of Georgia, the Apalachees of Florida, the Alabamas and Mobiles of Alabama, and the Choctaws, Chickasaws and Houmas of Mississippi. <span> The Origins of the Seminoles
The original Seminoles came to Florida because it was controlled by the Spanish, who had no interest in returning slaves to the British. They were mostly Lower Creeks who spoke the Mikasuki language, but other Indians, including Yuchis, Yamasees and Choctaws who had confronted Ponce de Leon and DeSoto, also joined the tribe in their trek to northern Florida from Georgia during the early 1700s. </span> By this time, many of the tribes in Florida, including the Tequestas, Calusas, Apalachees, Timucans and others, had been decimated by the Spanish presence, either in battles or by diseases such as smallpox. Out of an estimated 100,000 native Americans that occupied Florida during the 1500s, less than 50 survived. In 1767, Upper Creeks from Alabama, who spoke the Muskogee language, settled in the Tampa area. Shortly after this, in 1771, the first recorded usage of the name "Seminole" to denote an actual tribe was recorded. In 1778, the Seminoles were joined by more Lower Creeks and a few Apalachees. <span> The Five Civilized Tribes
Together with the Choctaws, Chickasaws, Creeks and Cherokees, the Seminoles were called "The Five Civilized Tribes." The name was coined because these tribes in particular adopted many ways of the white civilization. They lived in cabins or houses, wore clothes similar to the white man and often became Christians. </span></span>
