Roger Williams founded the colony of Rhode Island. He established it in 1636 after being banished from the Massachusetts Bay Colony due to his beliefs in religious freedom and separation of church and state. Rhode Island became a refuge for those seeking religious tolerance, making it one of the first places in America to promote such ideals.
