Unit 1: Foundations & Development Colonial North America

Types of Colonial Government Royal – run by the King Proprietary – given by King for one person to run Joint-Stock – owned and run by investors Self-governing – started and run by themselves

Jamestown Established in 1607 First permanent English settlement Was a joint-stock colony, made profit from tobacco In present day Virginia

Religious Dissenters Pilgrims – built settlement called Plymouth in 1620 in modern day Massachusetts. Wanted to separate from church of England Quakers – persecuted for beliefs; settled in PA Pacifists (against war); Catholics – members of original Christian church & persecuted in England Founded Maryland Puritans – wanted to purify Church of England Settled in Massachusetts Famous for their persecution of “witches” during the Salem Witch Trials of the 1600s

Colonial Economy Mercantilism—theory that a country should sell more goods than it buys Gave Britain a favorable balance of trade (they made money) Hard on colonies - sell raw goods to Britain for cheap & had to buy expensive products Plantation system—large farm; used slave labor or other workers; used to grow cash crops (cotton, tobacco, rice, indigo…) Indentured servants the other workers, ppl work for certain period of time in return for travel expenses, shelter, food, pay off debt

Slavery Favored over indentured servants Brought from Africa to America on the Middle Passage of the Triangular Trade Route Africa (slaves) America/Caribbean (rum, sugar, cotton, raw materials) England (manufactured goods) Draw a diagram of the triangular trade route in your notes

Native Americans Already in America, many killed off by disease Numbers too small to fight off Europeans Many deaths due to conflicts, population plummeted Some groups able to coexist peacefully…at least for a little while

Bacon’s Rebellion Natives seen as threat Nathaniel Bacon, a farmer, reacted to his hatred of N.A. in 1676 He raised an army of farmers on Virginia frontier to fight them Successful —but still mad Marched men to Jamestown to confront officials about lack of representation in frontier and unfair high taxes Set fire to the town and almost completely destroyed it
