In the early 17th century, the Pilgrims, a group of Separatists seeking religious tolerance, established Plymouth Colony after receiving permission to create a settlement in Virginia. Led by John Carver, they set sail on the Mayflower, where they drafted the Mayflower Compact to ensure governance and discipline. Facing a harsh winter that led to significant hardship, they were aided by the Wampanoag and the Native American Squanto, who taught them essential survival skills. The first Thanksgiving in 1621 marked a significant moment of gratitude and cooperation.
