The 1st Amendment was created to protect the freedoms of the American people. These freedoms include establishment and practice of religion, free speech, free press, and the rights to assemble and petition.

It was written because some of the people who came to America left Europe to try to find these freedoms; protecting them in the Constitution means that these rights cannot be taken away.
