England became interested in the New World too. The first English settlements appeared in America at the beginning of the seventeenth century. On the 21st of September in 1620 a group of people left England for the New World. They sailed from the English port of Plymouth, on board the ship the "Mayflower". They wanted to start a new life and to have no problems with the church.

After two months' voyage, on the 21st of November, these people landed in the Northeast of America. There were seventy-four men and twenty-eight women on the "Mayflower". They set up a colony and called that part of the country "New England".
