    A self-governmental colony where Puritans will be able to follow their religion.

    Explanation:

    The leaders of the Massachusetts Bay Colony were supreme members of the Puritan Church, the first Governor of the Colony was John Winthrop, and his deputy was John Dudley. The administration of the colony was governed by the Church, the colony acted as a stock company, and the election to power operated on the principle that only those with sufficient capital and shares could be elected or elected. The disgruntled population asked Winthrop to show them the contents of a charter, which stated that all members of the Colony had equal rights to legislate in the colony, and then the supreme authority in the Colony was taken over by the Supreme Council, to which only Puritans could still be elected. Although the Crown issued a charter with the intention of creating a business company in the new continent, the Company managed to transfer all its business management to the Colony and was able to create its own government with relatively little responsibility to the Crown.
