Review Questions

  1. Spain’s conquest of central Mexico and the Andes shaped competition by setting up a foothold in the New World. King Philip II was a passionate Catholic who opposed any challenges to the Catholic Church. In the Spanish Netherlands, wealthy provinces revolted to protect their Calvinist faith.

  2. The colonists had to learn how to use the land. An example of this is in Jamestown, where the soil was sandy and not fertile. After an alliance was formed with the Native Americans in the area, the colonists were taught how to grow crops in the sandy soil.

  3. Tobacco was a push factor that caused the English to leave for colonial America. The English craved the nicotine in the tobacco and pulled the English into Virginia and Maryland. Many protestants also experienced religious persecution in the old world. The Pilgrims were an example of these religious separatists who left the Church of England to go to America because they were threatened by King James.

  4. James I claimed divine rule in England and threatened Puritans. This caused the English Puritans to migrate to America to allow them to establish their own churches in New England. English Puritans and Scots demanded religious reform and representation in English government. Puritans were going to have a triumphant return to England. When the monarchy was restored, the Puritan colonies became refuges for the Calvinists and Atlantic republic traditions.

Making Connections

  1. There were attempts at revolts by the Native Americans like Metacom’s War. Although they killed a lot of Englishmen, more Native Americans were killed by famine, disease and death in battle. Also, the colonists brought over diseases that they had immunities to, but the Native Americans hadn’t had any exposure to. This caused death in a large number of Native Americans. The colonist population grew because they were healthier and were growing their families quicker.

  1. The dominant theme is battle and there are a lot of Native American warriors but Smith is alone in the foreground. The other colonists are separated from Smith and unable to help him. At the time, Jamestown was not thriving because the colonists refused to plant crops. They wanted everything from the Native Americans but didn’t want to provide anything in return. They underestimated the power of the Native Americans and didn’t expect to have so much resistance.
