The correct answer is B. The colony of Maryland was established in 1634 to create a place where English Catholics could be safe.
Explanation:
The Province of Maryland was formed as the owner colony of George Calvert, the first baron of Baltimore (however, he died shortly before being officially owner, so it was his son Cecilius Calvert who inherited it) to especially welcome the persecuted Catholics in England. It was 49,000 km², larger than the current state of Maryland, partly because its boundaries were vaguely defined. Some lands were subsequently ceded to Pennsylvania, while others were used to form the District of Columbia to build Washington.
Local culture basically means to involve culture from a specific location. Also, cultural traits are slightly different according to the location or community.
