Answer 1

Many people came to the Americas in the 16th and 17th century because they wanted to establish colonies and wanted more religious freedom.

Answer 2

Settled primarily throughout the 1600s, England's American colonies were home to diverse groups of people. The Northern colonies were frequently settled by people escaping religious persecution in Europe. In the South, economic interests tended to prevail, with most colonies populated by profit seekers. Some people, like the millions of slaves who were brought from Africa, came unwillingly to America.
