Answer:

<u>Puritans</u>

Explanation:

The first English colony in North America was Jamestown (named after King James, the heir of Elizabeth I Tudor) in present-day Virginia, founded in 1607 in the territory of the great Confederation of the Algonquin tribes of Pauvatan. Thirteen years later, the English Puritans, apostates of the Anglican Church, arrived in the New World aboard the Mayflower in 16201. They landed in the territory of the present-day state of Massachusetts. In the vicinity they established the Plymouth colony in the coastal area and the land that was called New England in 1616, until then the French and other Europeans called it Norumbega. Historians often refer to them as "Puritans," but they called themselves "separatists" because they separated from the Anglican Church, or "saints" because their church, in its early Christian model, was "the church of the saints." The name "pilgrims" used  are members of the Mayflower Passenger Descendants Society.

This is an excerpt from a letter written by Lorenzo de' Medici, the ruler of Florence from 1469-1492, to his son Giovanni, who h
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

We can see in the letter that Lorenzo de 'Medici advises his son to be loyal to the church, above any other consideration, including the loyalty to the state that the Medici ruled: the Duchy of Florence.

However, Lorenzo de 'Medici has an interest in keeping his son loyal to the church. He knowns that his son's loyalty to the church and the pope can link the Duchy of Florence, and the Medici Family, closer to the ecclesiastical power, which was a great political force at the time.
