[QUOTE="Billybob, post: 2362984, member: 1294"] Some but certainly not all. The Virginia Colony was a nationalistic/economic venture some came to make/enhance their fortunes in support of the crown and church. Many of the Puritans wanted a national church but wanted it ran their way religiously and brought persecution against others with them. There were far fewer "Pilgrims"(separatist) and they had already found religious freedom in Holland but were suffering economically there and felt they were loosing their children to "loose Dutch liberal ways" so they then decided to come to come to the new world. Many convicts were sent to the colonies until the Revolutionary War. The Spanish and French also colonized parts of America. [/QUOTE]
