The English first colonized America. Pilgrims left England because of religious persecution and wanting a 'better life'. The first boat landed on Plymouth Rock and settlements were started.

The pilgrims came to America for three reasons:

1. Some thought it would be good financially.
2. Others were of a different religion, and did not agree the the other religion. Then, they were went to America to have their own religion and in exchange send goods back to England.
