The notes of English..

-- Puritans

The Puritans were a significant grouping of English Protestants in the 16th and17th centuries. Puritanism in this sense was founded by some Marian exilesfrom the clergy shortly after the accession of Elizabeth I of England in 1558, as an activist movement within the Church of England. The designation "Puritan" is often incorrectly used, notably based on the assumption that hedonism andpuritanism are antonyms: Historically, the word was used to characterize the Protestant group as extremists similar to the Cathari of France, and according to Thomas Fuller in his Church History dated back to 1564, ArchbishopMatthew Parker of that time used it and "precisian" with the sense of modern "stickler".

-- Christian people who believe in love

A Christian is a person who adheres to Christianity, an Abrahamic, monotheistic religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth as recorded in the Canonical gospels and the letters of the New Testament. "Christian" derives from the Koine Greek word Christ, a translation of the Biblical Hebrew term Messiah.

It would serve as capital of the colony for 83 years.

-- Original sin

Original sin is, according to a Christian theological doctrine, humanity's state of sin resulting from the Fall of Man. This condition has been characterized in many ways, ranging from something as insignificant as a slight deficiency, or a tendency toward sin yet without collective guilt, referred to as a "sin nature", to something as drastic as total depravity or automatic guilt of all humans through collective guilt. 

--  The Promised Land is a term used to describe the land promised or given by God, according to theHebrew Bible, to the Israelites, the descendants of Jacob. The promise is firstly made to Abraham and then renewed to his sonIsaac, and to Isaac's son Jacob (Genesis 28:13), Abraham's grandson. The promised land was described in terms of the territory from the River of Egypt to the Euphrates river (Exodus 23:31) and was given to their descendants afterthe Exodus. 

--  Moses was, according to the Hebrew Bible andQur'an, a religious leader, lawgiver and prophet, to whom the authorship of theTorah is traditionally attributed. Also called Moshe Rabbenu in Hebrew, he is the most important prophet inJudaism, and is also considered an important prophet in Christianity andIslam, as well as a number of other faiths.

-- Joshua  Canon

Joshua is a minor figure in the Torah, being one of the spies for Israel (Num 13-14) and in few passages as Moses's assistant.^[1] He turns to be the central character in the Hebrew Bible's Book of Joshua. According to the booksExodus, Numbers and Joshua, he became the leader of the Israelite tribes after the death of Moses; his name was Hoshe'a the son of Nun, of the tribe of Ephraim, but Moses called him Yehoshu'a (Joshua) the name by which he is commonly known; and he was born in Egypt prior to the Exodus, and was probably the same age as Caleb, with whom he is occasionally associated.

-- Spain  money  Clolumbus

--  Christopher Columbus (c. 31 October 1451 – 20 May 1506) was an explorer, colonizer, and navigator, born in the Republic of Genoa, in northwesternItaly. Under the auspices of the Catholic Monarchs of Spain, he completed four voyages across the Atlantic Ocean that led to general European awareness of the American continents in the Western Hemisphere. Those voyages, and his efforts to establish permanent settlements in the island ofHispaniola, initiated the process of Spanish colonization, which foreshadowed the general European colonization of the "New World".
