probably forced them to leave...sorry i have no idea..:(

anonymous · Answer

Yes, it is B.

Because of religious oppression by the English monarchy (changed the church to one religion and leaned more towards catholic tradition), many people who were not of that one faith were forced to leave to pursue religious freedom in the Americas. (think of the pilgrims).
