While the Pilgrims did seek economic opportunity in the New World, their primary motivation was to escape religious persecution in England. They aimed to establish a community where they could practice their faith freely rather than solely searching for gold. Upon arrival, they found a land rich in resources, including corn, which became essential for their survival. Thus, their journey was driven more by a quest for religious freedom than by the pursuit of wealth.
