Europe obtained land in North America, they did not only create vast settlements that traded goods between Europe and the Americas but also organized independent churches that catered to their population. For instance, when the Puritans settled the Massachusetts Bay in 1630, they developed their own government and rules compared to the Quakers who settled Pennsylvania in 1681.

Lucius Annaeus Seneca once stated, “He who has great power should use it lightly”. The community of Salem in 1692 was recognized as a strict lifestyle which tolerates practices associated with the Catholic Church.
