What were the french huguenots being prosecuted for

Huguenots were French Protestants in the 16th and 17th centuries who followed the teachings of theologian John Calvin. Persecuted by the French Catholic government during a violent period, Huguenots fled the country in the 17th century, creating Huguenot settlements all over Europe, in the United States and Africa

The French Huguenots were persecuted because they were Protestants in country that was predominantly Catholic. When the Louis XIV revoked the Edict of Nantes, which guaranteed religious tolerance, it led to the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre in which more than 100,000 Huguenots were massacred in cold blood.

there were three types of british colonies: royal, proprietary, and self-governing. each type had its own characteristics. proprietary colonies, such as pennsylvania, maryland, and delaware, were basically land grants from the british government.
