The Lord Protector Oliver Cromwell (1599-1658) attempted to bring about religious toleration for the persecuted Protestant sects. He also debated and granted informal toleration and readmission of the Jews into England; they had been formally expelled by royal edict in 1290.
n the years following the English Civil War the Puritans were somewhat subdued in their political activity. England reverted back to the monarchy again after Cromwell's death. Many Puritans in fact had given up on seeing their dreams fulfilled in England. Many were now on their way to America hoping to see their dreams fulfilled there |

| In the encomienda, the crown granted a person a specified number of natives for whom they were to take responsibility. In theory, the receiver of the grant was to protect the natives from warring tribes and to instruct them in the Spanish language and in the Catholic faith: in return they could extract tribute from the natives in the form of labor, gold or other products.[1] In practice, the difference between encomienda and slavery could be minimal.[1] Natives were forced to do hard labor and subjected to extreme punishment and death if they resisted |
