...... "America" then became the place to send criminals.......as in a prison/jail....
It was a punishment to come here, not as something fun and new to explore.
***EDIT****, not EVERY PERSON that was sent to the Americas was because they were a "religious criminal". Most were actual "regular" criminals (theft, murder, etc.). As I stated before to be sent to the Americas was a prison sentence. They same as being sent to Rikers, Alcatraz, etc.
But again, my post isn't to debate this issue, but the article that PM_Mama posted.
