Religious freedom

Explanation:

Colonists who moved to and settled New England were usually Puritan or Protestant. They were seeking refuge from prosecution brought on by the Church of England, which insisted that everyone follow the same religion. New England settlers were able to set up their own government in which religious tolerance and freedom were key to society.
