Thirty-five of the Pilgrims were members of the extreme English Separatist Church, who came to America to escape the jurisdiction of the corrupt Church of England.
Ten years before, a group of Separatists fled to Holland in quest of religious freedom due to English persecution.
<h3>Why did the Pilgrims choose to leave Holland? What hardships did they face before deciding to travel to America?</h3>
The Pilgrims spent several years in Holland before setting foot in North America.
The group, led by William Brewster and John Robinson, went to Amsterdam in 1608 to avoid religious persecution for performing clandestine services not sanctioned by the Church of England.
<h3>What freedoms were the Puritans pursuing?</h3>
Theirs was a theocracy that ruled over every element of their life. Religion and freedom of speech or the press were as strange to the Puritans as they were to the Church of England.
When other colonies arrived with other views, the Puritans drove them away.
