Puritanism was a religious reformation movement that began in England in the late 15th century. It's initial goal was to remove any remaining links to Catholicism within the church of England after it's separation from the Catholic church. To do this, puritans sought to change the structure and ceremonies of the church.
Puritanism had a broad impact on English religious laws as well as the founding and development of the colonies in America.
