Roger Williams founded the first permanent white settlement in Rhode Island at Providence in 1636 ... Williams established a policy of religious and political freedom in his new settlement. Other leaders advocating
freedom of worship soon established similar communities on either side of Narragansett Bay. These communities united, and in 1663 King Charles II of England
granted them a royal charter, providing for a greater degree of self-government than any other colony in the New World and authorizing the continuation
of freedom of religion.
