To be free from King George III
The preaching of the Great awakening did more perhaps to draw the colonists together so that our country (America) would truly become one nation under God.
In the Declaration of Independence, the colonists listed several reasons for separation from England. One reason is that the British king and parliament had enacted taxes on the colonists without their consent as the colonists had no representatives in the British Parliament. Another reason is that the British government had sent British soldiers to the colonies, where they were expected to be fed and housed by the colonists. A third reason is that the colonists were given 'mock' trials oftentimes without a jury. A fourth reason is that the coloniesÕ representative houses were often dissolved by the British king. A fifth reason is that the coloniesÕ grievances have been repeatedly ignored by the British king.
The reason America helps other countries is because that's first of all the right thing to do. The other reason is, because America is a kind generation, and nation and that is also why God has helped it to rise and be one of the best and most recognized country.
the crown kept changing governments and the colonists were primarily backwoods farmers who were very independent
The animals that were brought with the colonists were not native to the land and the colonists allowed them to roam around the colony. When they did this the animals would eat the crops the Native Americans were growing. This caused a problem between the two groups and if one of the Native Americans killed or hurt one of the animals the colonists would charge them for the animal and all the offspring of that animal. Not only were the colonists bringing nonnative animals, but they also introduced plants and insects into the environment trying to create another England. The honey bee was the most destructive insect introduced to North America and essentially the colonists practiced environmental terrorism against the Native Americans.
One reason the colonists came to America was their search for religious freedom. Many were also looking for land and new opportunities.

It depends on the word colonist. If you are talking about something like explorers it would be to find riches and earn more land. IF you are talking about something like the pilgrims it would be to have religious freedom.

Because of the colonists that migrated from Britain to America to establish colonies and they end up taking more and more of their land.
The United States is a country of immigrants and with them came the ideas for a democracy, art, philosophy, foods, music, political figures ( Andrew Jackson's parents were immigrants) , and the makeup of the country. NO ONE who came as colonists was native to North America except the Native Americans. There is a ridiculous idea that the colonists were native to North America, but that is not true. They came from different parts of Europe to establish colonies for various reasons.
