Colonial America
Traditionally, when we tell the story of “Colonial America,” we are talking about the English colonies along the Eastern seaboard. That story is incomplete–by the time Englishmen had begun to establish colonies in earnest, there were plenty of French, Spanish, Dutch and even Russian colonial outposts on the American continent–but the story of those 13 colonies (New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia) is an important one. It was those colonies that came together to form the United States.

It was those colonies that came together to form the United States.
ENGLISH COLONIAL EXPANSION
Sixteenth-century England was a tumultuous place. Because they could make more money from selling wool than from selling food, many of the nation’s landowners were converting farmers’ fields into pastures for sheep. This led to a food shortage; at the same time, many agricultural workers lost their jobs.
The 16th century was also the age of mercantilism, an extremely competitive economic philosophy that pushed European nations to acquire as many colonies as they could. As a result, for the most part, the English colonies in North America were business ventures. They provided an outlet for England’s surplus population and (in some cases) more religious freedom than England did, but their primary purpose was to make money for their sponsors.
THE TOBACCO COLONIES
In 1606, King James I divided the Atlantic seaboard in two, giving the southern half to the London Company (later the Virginia Company) and the northern half to the Plymouth Company. The first English settlement in North America had actually been established some 20 years before, in 1587, when a group of colonists (91 men, 17 women and nine children) led by Sir Walter Raleigh settled on the island of Roanoke. Mysteriously, by 1590 the Roanoke colony had vanished entirely. Historians still do not know what became of its inhabitants.
In 1606, just a few months after James I issued its charter, the London Company sent 144 men to Virginia on three ships: the Godspeed, the Discovery and the Susan Constant. They reached the Chesapeake Bay in the spring of 1607 and headed about 60 miles up the James River, where they built a settlement they called Jamestown. The Jamestown colonists had a rough time of it: They were so busy looking for gold and other exportable resources that they could barely feed themselves. It was not until 1616, when Virginia’s settlers learned how to grow tobacco, that it seemed the colony might survive. The first African slaves arrived in Virginia in 1619.
In 1632, the English crown granted about 12 million acres of land at the top of the Chesapeake Bay to Cecilius Calvert, the second Lord Baltimore. This colony, named Maryland after the queen, was similar to Virginia in many ways. Its landowners produced tobacco on large plantations that depended on the labor of indentured servants and (later) African slaves.
But unlike Virginia’s founders, Lord Baltimore was a Catholic, and he hoped that his colony would be a refuge for his persecuted coreligionists. Maryland became known for its policy of religious toleration for all.
THE NEW ENGLAND COLONIES
The first English emigrants to what would become the New England colonies were a small group of Puritan separatists, later called the Pilgrims, who arrived in Plymouth in 1620. Ten years later, a wealthy syndicate known as theMassachusetts Bay Company sent a much larger (and more liberal) group of Puritans to establish another Massachusetts settlement. With the help of local natives, the colonists soon got the hang of farming, fishing and hunting, and Massachusetts prospered.
As the Massachusetts settlements expanded, they generated new colonies in New England. Puritans who thought that Massachusetts was not pious enough formed the colonies of Connecticut and New Haven (the two combined in 1665). Meanwhile, Puritans who thought that Massachusetts was too restrictive formed the colony of Rhode Island, where everyone–including Jews–enjoyed complete “liberty in religious concernments.” To the north of the Massachusetts colony, a handful of adventurous settlers formed the colony of New Hampshire.
THE MIDDLE COLONIES
In 1664, King Charles II gave the territory between New England and Virginia, much of which was already occupied by Dutch traders and landowners called patroons, to his brother James, the Duke of York. The English soon absorbed Dutch New Netherland and renamed it New York, but most of the Dutch people (as well as the Belgian Flemings and Walloons, French Huguenots, Scandinavians and Germans who were living there) stayed put. This made New York one of the most diverse and prosperous colonies in the New World.
In 1680, the king granted 45,000 square miles of land west of the Delaware River to William Penn, a Quaker who owned large swaths of land in Ireland. Penn’s North American holdings became the colony of “Penn’s Woods,” or Pennsylvania. Lured by the fertile soil and the religious toleration that Penn promised, people migrated there from all over Europe. Like their Puritan counterparts in New England, most of these emigrants paid their own way to the colonies–they were not indentured servants–and had enough money to establish themselves when they arrived. As a result, Pennsylvania soon became a prosperous and relatively egalitarian place.
THE SOUTHERN COLONIES
By contrast, the Carolina colony, a territory that stretched south from Virginia to Florida and west to the Pacific Ocean, was much less cosmopolitan. In its northern half, hardscrabble farmers eked out a living. In its southern half, planters presided over vast estates that produced corn, lumber, beef and pork, and–starting in the 1690s–rice. These Carolinians had close ties to the English planter colony on the Caribbean island of Barbados, which relied heavily on African slave labor, and many were involved in the slave trade themselves. As a result, slavery played an important role in the development of the Carolina colony. (It split into North Carolina and South Carolina in 1729.)
In 1732, inspired by the need to build a buffer between South Carolina and the Spanish settlements in Florida, the Englishman James Oglethorpe established the Georgia colony. In many ways, Georgia’s development mirrored South Carolina’s.
In 1700, there were about 250,000 European and African settlers in North America’s thirteen English colonies. By 1775, on the eve of revolution, there were nearly 2.5 million. These colonists did not have much in common, but they were able to band together and fight for their independence.

After life became more stable in the colonies, Indenture servant started living past the five years in which they had to serve. This led to former Indentured Servants getting more and more land which increased the conflict with the Natives and ultimately led to the Bacon Rebellion. People started seeing Indentured Servitude as too unfavorable so they decided to replace it with slavery where they would get slaves for life in exchange of just money.

It changed colonial culture, congregations argued over religious practices lastly people left old churches and joined protestant ones
3)Rise of Consumerism and the enlightenment era were connected because they both has a huge impact on the colonies. Thanks to the enlightenment the settlers became more concerned about their social reputation that began advertising their products to make money and get a good name. Also they wanted to be more cultivated and educated
4)There was a technological progress that occurred in some parts of America in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Colonies were lacking technological capacities. Basically the colonies needed more technology like for example weapons so they could be protected.
5) The colonies eventually divided because they had disagreements. Regional differences existed. The great awakening therefore, had a impact throughout the colonies, North and South. Most white colonists hares a belief in certain basics and principles of law and politics.

3.) The population in America increased when women started to be brought on ships going to America. This caused a natural increase due to procreation.
4.) Indentured servants served 5 to 7 years. The masters had to give servants a substantial amount of food, drink, and shelter. The servants had to do what the masters asked of them and couldn't get married or have sex until they were given their freedom.

4.

With the time, more of this servants were surviving the harsh labor and land had to be given to them. This lead to a worst conflict with the Native Americans. Of course, the english didn't desired this at all so they changed this plan to slavery, which saved them money and avoid them this conflicts.
5. The colonies re-united because of the growth of colonial population which produced a continuous line of settlement and lead to constructions of roads and intercolonial trade. Knowing they re-united is significant because it shows how the colonies need intercolonial unity to succeed as colonies.

4. How was the great awakening different from the enlightenment? BE SPECIFIC.
5. What was the relationship between the father and his sons of a plantation? Did women get the same thing? Why or why not.
1. Indentured servants usually choose themselves to be indentured servants so that they can get land. Also indentured servants would only be servants for 5-7 years until they would become free and own a small patch of land. Whereas, slaves are slaves forever and usually don't choose to work for a white man for the rest of their lives.
Delete2. Midwives took the place of the physicians, who didn't have much knowledge on medicine.
3. Most women in Chesapeake started a family at a young age. Having many kids, when most would die because of the horrible medical conditions and treatments to a babies. Some women didn't even get married and just had kids, but later on women were controlled by men and limited certain rights. Finally, women began to have children that would survive after better medical treatments were brought about.
4. The Great Awakening was different from The Enlightenment in which, the enlightenment focused on the power of men and women to look to themselves for guidance and help instead of God, who people during this time mostly looked to, especially during the great awakening where religion was the big topic and was thought to be fully accomplished if people educated themselves so they began to build schools for the training of New Light ministers, who were considered revivalist.
5. The relationship between the father and son of a plantation was the passing of property. The passing of property was when the father would pass his property down to his son or sons, mostly sons, to inherit and to pass down to their kids. In this case, women didn't get land they usually got money and the permission to marry from their fathers. The reason for this is because back then women were thought of as weak and not fit to farm and control many acres of crops, they would be below the mens authority and be housewives to them.

4) why was the enlightenment so important to the people in America and what conflicts did it cause ?
5)Explain why patriarchy could be a cause for people to accuse women during the Salem witch trials
1) The reason the puritans came to the new world was was so they can practice their religion freely and the way they wanted too.
Delete2) Indentured servants decrease because sooner or later they got their freedom and then they needed land and that caused many problems leading slavery to increase because they never got there freedom.
3) Many deaths occurred during the 17 and 18 century because is was very easy to go into the medical field.
4) The enlightenment was so important to people in England and America because it gave them a new view of life and that everything they did they didn't have to go to God for a answer that that can choose what to do. This cause conflict to heavily religion people they didn't like the Enlightenment ideas due to their faith in God.
5) Patriarchy could have been involved h the Salem which trails because some of the women who were accused where women who owned land. The men in the village believed they did something to get that land which led them to accusing them as witches once they were killed the land was anybody's to own.

1. The differences between the Federalists and the Anti-Federalists are vast and at times complex. Federalists’ beliefs could be better described as nationalist. The Federalists were instrumentThe Anti-Federalists opposed the ratification of the US Constitution, but they never organized efficiently across all thirteen states, and so had to fight the ratification at every state conventional in 1787 in shaping the new US Constitution.
Delete2.Americans of the Revolutionary Era regarded the "West" as those lands between the Appalachian Mountains and the Mississippi River.The claims to the western lands were usually rooted in the vague wording of old colonial charters.
