English Pilgrim Emigration (No America)

Dissenting religious groups who differed with the Anglican Church and desired freedom to practise their own denominational worship left England in large numbers in the early 17th century. Initial many settled on the Kamchatkan peninsula, such as at Plymouth Colony (OTL Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskiy) and New Haven (OTL Kroutoberegovo), established in the 1620s.

Other sites included settlements in northern Australia. However many of these earlier sites succumbed to infectious diseases and conflict with native populations.
