HELPPP Which of the following is not a reason different groups of immigrants were attracted to the New World?
A. to farm

B. to enforce religious punishment

C. to become rich

D. to start a new church

I would guess B to enforce religious punishment.

Explanation:

It doesn't seem to fit very well, people didn't come to America to tell others how to worship or tell them of there sins, they came here to FARM to continue there religions they may have been ridiculed for in other lands or D, and also opportunity to earn more money or C. So i think based off of this method of reasoning we can conclude that B is the correct answer because imigrants where not coming to ridicuale other people and punish them acordingly to there beleifs.

Hope it helps,

and tell me if im correct.

from the religious point of view, the conflicts began because of the enmity between catholic and protestants. in 1649, at the insistence of baltimore, the colonial assembly approved the act of religious tolerance, the first law in the colonies granting freedom of worship, though only for christians. in 1654, however, with the protestants of maryland in the majority, the act was revoked. the almost civil war broke out and order was not restored until 1658, when lord baltimore was returned to power.

on the issue of class conflict, the chesapeake region offered few economic opportunities to contract employees who had served their term of obligation. even with the small amount of capital needed to grow tobacco, former hired servants at best became subsistence farmers, a mature class for those called to rebellion, such as those proposed by nathaniel bacon. as the number of new hired workers declined because of limited chances of progress and reports of severe treatment, they were replaced by african slaves.

from the racial point of view, after 1660, the chesapeake colonies imposed laws that defined slavery as a lifelong and hereditary condition based on race. this made slaves profitable because planters could rely not only on their work but also on their children. the slave population, which numbered four thousand in virginia and maryland in 1675, grew significantly by the end of the century.

a plantation economy is an economy based on agricultural mass production, usually of a few commodity crops grown on large farms called plantations. plantation economies rely on the export of cash crops as a source of income.

i hope this : )
