Answer 1

ANSWER:

Good soil, hard to find in rocky, mountainous New England, was what attracted the first westward pioneers to Connecticut.

Like Massachusetts, Connecticut was settled town by town, with ministers leading their congregations into the Connecticut River Valley.

In 1638, three river towns, Hartford, Wethersfield, and Windsor, elected delegates to form a political union.

The Fundamental Orders of Connecticut, which they drafted, was the first written constitution in America. It established a government much like that of Massachusetts, with an assembly elected by all church members and an elected governor.
