Massachusetts Bay Colony was more successful because of its
initial intention. The crown wanted to create a company that is similar to the
Virginia Company. The Puritan were able to create a government that allowed
franchise amongst clergies and church leaders. They had found a way to stop the
colony to rebel against the crown.
Plymouth Colony was composed of many separatists. They were
not given charter from the Imperial crown because of the continuing war between
the European colonizers. Because of this, Plymouth was then merged with Massachusetts
Bay Colony.
