The Protestant Reformation proved to be a crucial event for the British colonies in North America, as it started the conditions under which the first British settlers made their way there because of the religious prosecution they were facing. In other words, it started the conflict between Catholics and Protestants that created the climate of political pressure towards those with different religions, who then sought a safe haven in North America, hoping they would be able to practice their beliefs freely there.
