English Colonial Experiment Growth, Transformation and Development

Consider This… “The Creators of the American Colonies were investors looking to make money, religious dissenters looking for sanctuary and people making the most of the king’s generosity”.

Diversity within Colonial World Political Religious Ethnic Cultural

Charter Colonies Granted a document by the crown. Partial or conditional grant of sovereign power over an area. Most were founded by joint stock companies.

Propriety Colonies: One powerful individual received authority over a colony from the crown. Usually a gift for loyal subjects. Reflective of royal favor.

Royal / Crown Colonies Colonies directly possessed by the monarch. Had governors as direct reminders of royal power.

NEW ENGLAND COLONIES Survival was NOT guaranteed Farming was difficult, so they made money other ways – Shipbuilding – Fishing/ whaling – Timber/lumber

INFLUENCE OF RELIGION Puritan separatists - wanted to purify and split from the English Church. Literal interpretation of the Bible – If it wasn’t in the Bible, it didn’t need to be in religious celebration or spaces

PLYMOUTH 1620 Pilgrims (persecuted) William Bradford: friendly with neighboring Native American tribes and were taught to farm. Mayflower Compact.

MASSACHUSETTS BAY (1630) John Winthrop - “City on a Hill” Boston Harbor was bustling! Took advantage of the slave trade.

Self Government – theocracy Coming over in droves! What was happening in England?

MIDDLE COLONIES Religiously tolerant and diverse, therefore, had a better relationship with Native Americans and each other.

Offered safe haven to many groups, including Puritans exiled from Massachusetts Larger farms produced surplus and exported to other colonies and England.

SOUTHERN COLONIES Plantations, Tobacco, Surplus. Need for indentured servants and slaves.

Money maker for England Lived like English aristocrats, a model of European society

HOUSE OF BURGESSES delegates from the local communities, elected legislature. Made up of wealthy Virginians
