D. Colonies were too costly to maintain and defend

These countries were colonies of the Western European colonial powers, such as the British Empire and France.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof" - this limits the power of the government so that people have a freedom to practice their religion.
