Explain and identify the role of Puritan men in Massachusetts *I’ll give brainliest if answered correctly*

The early immigrants to the United States, especially in New England in the years after 1630, consisted in part of Puritans who fled religious persecution and formed their own colonies. The Puritans themselves carried out religious persecution, as they were behind the Witch Trials in Salem in the early 1690s.

In puritanical colonies in the United States, many secular pleasures such as gambling, corncobs and theater were banned. The Puritans restricted the use of musical instruments in their worship services, and practices such as sexual intercourse outside of marriage were punished publicly. However, they were not opposed to drinking alcohol in moderation.  

Puritan values are considered to have had some historical significance for the development of society in the United States. Puritans believed that education was necessary for the people, so that they themselves could become readers of the Bible and understand the laws of the land. Therefore, Puritans founded early universities such as Harvard College.

an empire is a sovereign state functioning as an aggregate of nations or people that are ruled over by an emperor or another kind of monarch. the territory and population of an empire is commonly of greater extent than the one of a kingdom.[1]

an empire can be made solely of contiguous territories, such as the austro-hungarian empire or the russian empire, or of territories far remote from the homeland, such as a colonial empire. aside from the more formal usage, the word empire can also refer colloquially to a large-scale business enterprise (e.g. a transnational corporation), a political organisation controlled by a single individual (a political boss), or a group (political bosses).[2] the word empire is associated with such other words as imperialism, colonialism, and globalization. empire is often used to describe a displeasure to overpowering situations.[3]
