Puritanism is pre-colonial, as shown in option A.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- Puritanism is a region that already existed in England before the colonists were established in America.
- Puritans suffered strong religious persecution in England and for this reason, the Puritans asked the king for permission to set up a colony in America.
- This would allow them to establish their religion without reprisals, in a territory that had no practitioners of another religion.
In this case, we can say that Puritanism is a pre-colonial religion and was the main reason why the first English colony in America was established.
