Like many of today's immigrants, there were colonists who came to America because they were facing persecution (or experiencing prejudice) because of their religious or cultural beliefs. Also, like many of today's immigrants, there were colonists who came to America seeking a better life for themselves and their family, and economic opportunities that were not available to them in the old country.
While the early Spanish explorers mainly sought gold and valuables, the French were looking for new sources of hides and furs. Virginia's colonists were seeking to improve their lives by acquiring property in America. However, some early New England settlers were simply looking for a new place to live, because of religious differences with the established English church.
