In 1565, the establishment of St. Augustine in Florida by Spanish Catholics marked the first permanent European settlement in North America, highlighting the role of religion in colonization and the spread of Christianity among Indigenous populations. By 1640, religious tensions were evident in New England as Puritans sought to create a "city upon a hill," promoting a theocratic society while also leading to conflicts with dissenters like Roger Williams and Anne Hutchinson. These events underscored the influence of religion in shaping governance, community identity, and interactions with Native Americans during this period.
