Explanation:
Both the Pilgrims and the Puritans were English Protestants who believed that the Church of England was in need of reform. Although both were strict Calvinists, they differed in approaches to reforming the Church of England. The Pilgrims were more inclined to separate from the church, while the Puritans wanted to reform the church from within.

- <u>glory.</u> They wanted their names to be famous. Two of the islands that Columbus saw were named after the two rulers (Isabela Island and Fernandina).
- <u>God.</u> They were highly Catholic (remember the Spanish Inquisition?) and they wanted to spread that, in theory, to the primitive natives.
Oddly enough, it wasn't Rome. Nor was it Antioch or Cordoba (both of those cities aren't even in Italy).
When the Byzantine empire expanded its borders under Justinian, it reclaimed much of what used to be part of the Roman Empire throughout the Mediterranean. But when they took Italy, they made Ravenna a provincial capital - not Rome. Later, it would eventually become the capital of a Byzantine Exarchate.
