Niccolo Machiavelli was an Italian diplomat, historian, philosopher, writer and poet of the Renaissance period. He is often called the father of political science. He was a senior official in the Florentine Republic. He wrote his most famous work <em>The Prince</em> in (1513).
His views are famous for being unscrupulous, and normalizing behaviours such as dishonesty and the killing of innocents in politics. He argued that a prince's most important job was not to be liked by the people, but feared, as this inspired more respect. He also believed that a prince should never appear weak, either to his subjects or to other countries, as this would cause him to be despised and attacked. Bill Clinton echoes this idea of strength being more important than virtue in his speech.
The United Kingdom does not have a codified constitution. However, a number of texts are considered to be constitutional, such that the "constitution of the United Kingdom" or "British constitution" may refer to a number of historical and momentous laws and principles that make up the country's body politic. Thus the term "UK constitution" is sometimes said to refer to an "unwritten" or uncodified constitution. The British constitution primarily draws from four sources: statute law (laws passed by the legislature), common law (laws established through court judgments), parliamentary conventions, and works of authority.[1] Similar to a constitutional document, it also concerns both the relationship between the individual and the state and the functioning of the legislature, the executive, and the judiciary.
Good Luck!

I know that some settlers left the Massachusetts Bay Colony if they didn't agree with the rules. So they went and formed new colonies the way they wanted them. Like instead of being open to only one religion this colony would be open to all religions and any way you want to practice it would be okay.
