Best Answer

Many settlements expanded because of religious factions. People like Anne Hutchinson and Roger Williams left to go to Rhode Island because they didn't agree with their religious leaders. Many also wanted more land to grow crops on, so they moved farther out where no colonists had land. The New World frontier was largely inhabited by Indians, who had major conflicts with the whites because the English moved onto their land.

How did ideas that developed during the enlightenment and the great awakening influence the colonists point of view?

The American colonists' view of government was shaped by both the Enlightenment and the powerful influence of "The Great Awakening". The Enlightenment strongly influenced the founding generation to value the use of reason in this life. "The Great Awakening" ensured that respect for and reference to God would also influence the founders. Both reason and religion are in fact evidently at work (though in different ways) throughout the founding documents of, and the original view of government in, America.
