This article is a reflection and bibliographical analysis on the disparities and motivators of the protestant migratory movement in Europe and America. Latin America has a little-known particular identity concerning the motivators of its pioneers, in one hand history portrays the desire for a religious revival of newcomers to North America, but on the other hand Latin immigration sought religious freedom in every way of authority under the influence of regional ideals. Many Protestant groups isolated themselves in rural communities forming a unique Protestant culture that later challenged the reach of European religious authority. The structures of thought formed by the regionalization of Protestantism inform the search for an identity based on attendance of the aspirations of an unmet reality in European lands.
