Write down anything in GREEN. Year 9 History Exploring America Write down anything in GREEN. The first English colonists arrived in America in 1607. They settled in what is now Virginia, named after Queen Elizabeth’s reputation as the Virgin Queen. Although countries like Holland sent explorers to America, Britain made the biggest impact, forcing the Dutch out. The pilgrim and Puritan settlement, started in 1620, is often remembered as the most famous British colony, beginning with the landing at Plymouth Rock. The first colonies had different goals: in Jamestown, Virginia, gold merchants hoped to find gold and get rich, whereas at Plymouth, the Puritans and pilgrims were trying to build a new “perfect” society. The idea of a perfect society was described as a “city upon a hill” by a British reverend in a famous sermon.

Freedom or slavery? Were the early English colonies in America a “City on a Hill”? Why or why not? Wealth or poverty?
