Settlers came to America in the 16th and 17th centuries for various reasons, including the search for new economic opportunities, religious freedom, and the desire to expand European empires. Many sought wealth through resources like gold and land, while others, particularly Puritans and Quakers, fled persecution in Europe to establish communities where they could practice their faith freely. Additionally, the promise of land and a fresh start attracted individuals and families seeking a better life.
