New England Colonial Government The Mayflower Compact, signed by 41 English colonists on the ship Mayflower on November 11, 1620.
It was the first written framework of government established in what is now the United States. The compact was written in the hopes that the pilgrims would pledge to work together for the success of the settlement.
The Mayflower Compact may have served as inspiration for the creation of a meetinghouse in the center of each New England town. The meetinghouse was a place where religious services and town political meetings were held. At town meetings, settlers discussed and voted on many issues.
Geography & Climate The New England region was a difficult land for colonists. The rocky soil was poor for farming. Situated on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean, the colonists were subjected to long winters and short growing seasons.
They did however, have lots of good, natural harbors which encouraged trading. There were also plentiful forests full of riches like animals to hunt and trees that could be cut down and sent to sawmills.
Religion The Pilgrims originally left England and settled in Plymouth for religious freedom. However, as Plymouth blossomed and became the Massachusetts colony, the settlers were not tolerant of other religions.
John Winthrop, who was a Puritan leader and founder of the Massachusetts colony, described their settlement as a “city upon a hill.” He set up a strict moral code at the settlement stating “the eyes of the world are upon us.”
Winthrop and other Puritan leaders did not like anyone to question their religious beliefs or the way the colony was governed. Usually, colonists who were unhappy were forced to leave.
Some colonists who left Massachusetts founded other colonies in New England. Roger Williams left Massachusetts and created the colony of Rhode Island because he believed the Puritan Church had become too powerful.
Anne Hutchinson, who had been persecuted in Massachusetts for publicly voicing her opinion about the church, also fled to Rhode Island. Hutchinson and others believed in toleration. Toleration is allowing others to practice their religion freely.
Another settler, Thomas Hooker, left Massachusetts because he believed the governor and other officials had too much power. He set up the colony of Connecticut and created a government with strict limits placed on those in power.
