CHAPTER 8

LESSON SIX : PROTESTANT REFORMATION

How did the Protestant Reformation drive the formation of the 13 colonies? From Massachusetts to Rhode Island to Pennsylvania to Maryland, we’ll learn how dif- ferent religious groups took advantage of colonization to practice their religion in peace. We will use a timeline to trace the history of the Protestant Reformation and see how it fractured the British population; creating vulnerable subgroups among those attached to the old Catholic faith or more extreme in their commit- ment to the Reformation movement’s ideals.
