The Pilgrims landed in America on November 21, 1620, in what is now Provincetown Harbour, Massachusetts. They were English Protestants who believed in the authority of the Bible for all matters related to faith and daily living. They were the foundation of the modern USA. Yet, we have had 400 years of internal killings with many tens of thousands of the indigenous Indians slaughtered, as well as more Americans dead in the 1860s Civil War than were killed in SE Asia from 1959 to 1975 - 58,000 with two or three million SE Asians wiped out by American soldiers.
"The American Civil War was a civil war in the United States from 1861 to 1865, over the issue of slavery. It resulted in the dissolution of the Confederate States, the abolition of slavery, and the death of over 600,000 soldiers and civilians." Wikipedia
