Answer and Explanation:

1. Religious instability in Europe was the historical context that allowed American colonies to become a land of religious diversity. This happened because england was going through religious conflicts between the Protestant strands and the Catholic Church, causing the two religious demons and their members to be pursued by each other's members.

2. Because they considered it a form of tyranny to allow religious persecution within a territory, in addition to recognizing that America was built thanks to the possibility of each man having the freedom to follow the religion he wanted.

3. Originally, the only Christian church in Europe is called the European Christian Church. However, in 1054, there was a great schism that divided this church into two denominations, which meant that the church was then divided into the Roman Catholic Apostolic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church, afterwards, there was another schism in the Roman Catholic Church, then creating the Protestant Church.

4. Who led the Protestant reform was Martin Luther, who was dissatisfied with some Catholic church customs and started a revolution.

5. The printing press was the technological invention that allowed Martin Luthero's theology to spread throughout Europe. This is because the printing press allowed a replication of Luther's texts at great speed, generating copies that could be spread anywhere.

6. Protestant churches challenged and weakened the power and control that the Catholic church had socially, economically and politically, in addition to different views on the religious world and this caused many conflicts between the two strands to be established.

7. Because the colonies did not have a king to determine an official religion that should be followed. As a result, Europeans who could not exercise their faith within their chosen religion, because of all the social persecution they suffered, saw America as a perfect place to live in peace, however they wanted.
