Massachusetts Bay colonists settled Connecticut and New Hampshire primarily in search of new land and greater economic opportunities. The desire for agricultural expansion and the pursuit of religious freedom also motivated these settlers, as they sought to escape the strict Puritan controls in Massachusetts. Additionally, conflicts with Native American tribes and the need for more space for a growing population further encouraged migration to these neighboring regions.
