The correct answer is C) the English government forced them to leave. Many of the English immigrants who moved to America in the 1600's were fearing the ongoing religious persecution, as the Puritans and other small Christian "sects" were minority religions in England. The government, or more so the monarchy at the time, decided the best idea was to send the religious minorities over to what is now the United States, so that they would not have to deal with them and offered the Puritans and the other sects a better alternative.
