What is the difference between the government of Jamestown Virginia and Plymouth Massachusetts?

Answer 1

Much of the contrast between the two colonies had to do with the reason they came to America. Jamestown settlers sought economic gain and were sponsored by the Virginia Company of London, an organization that wanted to expand English trade and get a wider market for Britainâ??s manufactured products. New England settlers moved to America due to the religious persecution they had suffered in England. While most people in the Jamestown colonies were members of the Church of England, the Pilgrims were dissenters from the Church of England and established the Puritan Church.
