question 2 of 10
what did the glorious revolution allow the colonists of new england to do?

a. end the policies that allowed the church of england to exist in
new england

b. ask the new king of england to end the high taxes on commercial
and manufacturing activity in new england

c. ask for religious freedom in england so they could return there

d. start a new religion based on puritanism

Explanation:

The Glorious Revolution (1688 - 1689) led to changes in colonial governance. In New England, the colonists were able to end the policies that supported the Church of England's presence there, as the new regime in England was more favorable to the Puritan - leaning colonists' religious and political desires. Option B is incorrect because the Glorious Revolution didn't directly address colonial taxes on commerce and manufacturing in this way. Option C is wrong as the colonists in New England were not seeking to return to England for religious freedom (they had come for religious freedom in the colonies). Option D is incorrect as they were already Puritan - influenced and didn't start a new religion based on Puritanism; rather, they could end the Church of England's policies in their colonies.

Answer:

A. End the policies that allowed the Church of England to exist in New England
