Plymouth was abandoned as the capital of the Colony of New Plymouth primarily due to its declining population and economic challenges. By the late 17th century, the town faced issues such as disease, a lack of resources, and competition from other settlements, which led to a decrease in its significance. Eventually, the capital was moved to Boston in 1686, reflecting the shift towards more prosperous and centrally located areas. This transition marked the decline of Plymouth as a political and economic center in New England.
