Why did Connecticut develop into a colony?

The first immigrants to Connecticut were Dutch, but they only made a few deals with local Indians and didn't take root. Later, Britain colonized Connecticut. After Mayflower immigrated to Plymouth, European colonists (mainly British in the early days) began to gradually expand nearby.

At the beginning, the Mayflower was actually aimed at the mouth of the Hudson River (that is, today's New York State), but because of the low navigation skills and bad weather at that time, it had to go ashore in Plymouth (Massachusetts) today. It occupied Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island (not Greek Island) and Connecticut. That is, the six States of New England today are the earliest developed parts of the thirteen States of British North America that later became the predecessor of the United States.

Simply put, New England, including Connecticut, developed because they were close to the early British colonies. Of course, the expansion of the colonists began around their own bases, and the original owners-Indians-had to be killed first.
