Colonial leaders forced provincial congress to govern Massachusetts because Patriots’ objected to Great Britain’s naming General Thomas Gage as the governor.

The founder and leader of Massachusets colony were called John Winthrop. Massachusetts Bay is where Massachusetts was founded in the year 1630. Ann Hutchinson and Roger Williams were banished from Massachusetts because of religious reasons.

Furthermore, the addition of the Bill of Rights showed that the Constitution can be amended; the Bill of Rights were the first ten amendments.
