Answer:

Expulsion of Roger Williams from Massachusetts

Explanation:

The founder of the smallest American colony was Roger Williams, a Protestant priest who was expelled from Massachusetts for his religious teaching. He thus reached <u>Rhode Island </u>in <u>1636 </u>and laid the foundations of the state on the land given to him by the Indians. Basically, Williams proclaimed that all people have religious and political freedoms in this place.

Answer:

Roger Williams, a Puritan minister, had differences with the Puritan leaders of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. When he was expelled, he founded Rhode Island as a colony that would be free to practice his brand of Puritanism. It was self-governing, with an elected governor and its own representative assembly.

Which one was not term of the Versailles Treaty? Germany had to pay reparations. Germany's military was majorly downsized German
lawyer [7]
Germany had to join the league of nations.

Germany had to pay reparations, and in an attempt to pay them off, they mass produced money which lead to inflation and the German money becoming practically worthless.

Germany’s military was majorly downsized in order to prevent another war of arms from them.

Germany’s territories were given to other countries, causing its own territory to become smaller. This is a main reason for why the Germans were angered into causing WWII.

Hope this helps!
