Puritanism seems to have arisen out of discontent with the Elizabethan Religious Settlement Elizabethan Religious Settlement was Elizabeth I's response to the religious divisions created over the reigns of Henry VIII, Edward VI and Mary I.This response was set out in two acts of parliament.
Puritans certainly agitated against the king, and reform of the religion was a rallying cry for the Parliamentary forces.
The influence of the Puritan movement persisted in England as the Evangelical faction of the Church of England, sometimes called "Low Anglican", while in the United States the Puritan settlement of New England was a major influence on American Protestantism.
