background and history of the process it took England to establish successful colonies in the New World. What were the reasons behind it why did things end up the way they are now? How the English go from being delayed to establishing the best colony ever How the English were able to establish long lasting colonies Today everyone knows about the colonies of Jamestown and Plymouth and how they were the first two permanent English settlements in North America. The establishment of those two colonies are one of the main reasons why England was able to control the entire east coast of America. What did it take for the English to establish these colonies and what is the background behind England colonizing the New World?…
Being that England was a country that did not fully partake in the competition for Western lands until over a century later, there were many resources at-hand for them to use as guides and as lessons to ensure a successful colonization process in the New World. For instance, maritime technology had been improved and without any of the advancements, European exploration could not have been possible in the first place. In addition to the technology, massive epidemics within North and South America during the Spanish conquest almost wiped out the entire Native American population that had lived there prior to European exploration. Therefore, English settlers had a much more successful relationship with their Native neighbors, making for an easier attempt to colonize in North American…
While Anglo-Americans continued to expand west in the 19th century, there were non-white groups that experienced the opposite from victory. Anglo-Americans believed in Manifest Destiny, which was the idea that Americans were ordained by God to continue expanding westward because it was underlined by both national pride and racial assumptions of superiority. Meanwhile, groups such as the Chinese and Native Americans experienced unfairness and fear while living under the control of Anglo-Americans. As a result of whites owning the lands, non-white groups were introduced to the idea of assimilation, which consisted of acquiring and accommodating to the Americans’ way of living. In addition to that, Americanization and assimilation were the catalyst…
* To Americans, the industrial progress, military strength, and political development of England and US were proof of an Anglo-Saxon superiority that carried with it a responsibility to extend the blessings of their rule to less able people.…
During the birth of the United States there was a struggle to see who would claim North America. In the 18th century, Spain, France, and England were all trying to win control of North America. Spain already had control over Florida, and France maintained its reign of the northern and central areas. The Frances interest in fur trade and England’s concern over their tobacco crop caused the inclination for more land that led to clashes between the two countries. England won this struggle for many reasons, some of which were: its ability to annex other countries with its military power, and failures of the other super powers.…
There had to be something that caused them to rise to where they are now. While some say their rise to power was pure luck, factors contributing to it were the Spanish-American War, Hawaii's annexation, and their involvement in World War I. When America was still a young, developing nation, it was vulnerable to the many dominating European empires.…
In the early history of the 1600's, North America had been discovered and establishment of the New World had begun. Although Spain and England both focused on the colonization and exploration of the Americas, their ambitions and goals were very different. The most important reasons for English colonization were religious freedom, to seek refuge, and new economic opportunities. The Spanish, on the other hand, exploited the New World in search of gold and silver, greed navigated their search. Although both the English and the Spanish experienced mild success, the English tactics for daily survival were much more organized and peaceful.…
As colonization continued, the Carolinas used slaving raids as a tool of war against Spanish Florida. They also used them as a means of raising capital. Traders employed Native American tribes who were, at the time, allied with them, like the Savannah, to go and raid their neighbors. Groups like the Kussoe, who refused to participate in raids, were ruthlessly attacked. When the Westo, previously English allies who extensively raided their region for slaves, outlived their usefulness, they were enslaved the same way as they enslaved the other tribes. As English influence grew, the choice of participating in a slave raid or becoming slaved extended raiding parties west across the Appalachians onto the Spanish’s mission doorsteps. Slavery became…

The English had never been or explored any other places except where they’d always lived. So when this new idea of immigration came into the scene the English were and little confused but also interested on what else was out there for them to see. New ideas and ways of living were founded in this time of immigration.…
With the drudgery and demeanor that the Anglo-Saxon Americans showed they got what they wished for, a true American nation. The Manifest Destiny led to many expansion opportunities such as the expansion to California, the Oregon Trail, and parts our Mexican land in the…
From the early 1600’s to the mid 1700’s, several European nations vied to control North America. Spain, Great Britain, and France were all powerhouses trying to colonize the free world and create a massive empire. Out of the three, England won the struggle because of failures made by the Spanish and French in the years before the American Revolution.…
