Puritans purchased a controlling interest in the Massachusetts Bay Colony.
The people who came were persecuted by the Anglican Church.
Explanation:
The settlement in the "Massachusetts Bay" gave the<em> Puritans </em><u>a way to continue their religious practices. </u>These people came because they were being persecuted by the Anglican Church under the leadership of Archbishop William Laud <em>(an Anglican who was also considered a favorite dvisor of King Charles I). </em>The colony gave the Puritans the freedom to express their beliefs without upsetting the Anglicans.
The Puritans also purchased a controlling interest in the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Since the colony was founded by the owners of the<em> Massachusetts Bay Company</em> (which included <em>investors</em>), they were largely absorbed into controlling the area. They initially had a good relationship with the native Indians, however it didn't end well because the tribes also wanted to take control of the area. This led to the "Pequot War." The Puritans wanted to achieve dominance, especially when it comes to converting people into their religion.
