In 1629, the Massachusetts Bay Colony was granted a charter by King Charles I, allowing a group of Puritan merchants to establish a colony in New England. This charter provided significant autonomy and self-governance, which attracted many Puritans seeking religious freedom from persecution in England. The colony was officially founded the following year, and it became a pivotal center for Puritan settlement, influencing the cultural and political landscape of New England. The charter also facilitated the Great Migration, during which thousands of Puritans moved to the colony in search of a new life.
The Massachusetts Bay Colony had its charter revoked in 1686 by the British. This action was part of a larger effort to consolidate the New England colonies under a single Dominion of New England, which aimed to increase royal control and streamline governance. The revocation was a response to the colony's resistance to royal authority and its failure to adhere to the Crown's regulations.
