How Did Colonists Start America

Americans today have slowly forgotten how our society came to be. The first Americans had to struggle a ton to get to where we are today. Colonists of America had to develop European settlement and nation building by introducing the political, social, and cultural exploration of each colony. The colonists had to build communities with these explorations to help control and grow the colonies. The three colonies that started America included New England, Middle, and Southern. Settlers had to explore new areas to find these places to settle. Many of them encountered Natives which also played a key into establishing colonies because they had to form treaties and allow Natives to be apart of the new developing colonies.

In these colonies many immigrants were introduced. Many of these immigrants were German, Irish, and Scottish. “Germans made up the largest contingent of migrants from the European continent to the Middle colonies. Immigrants swarmed to the middle colonies because of the availability of land (Roark, et al. 109) The Middle Colonies abided by the crown still and for religion they had separate church and state (Abel). Slavery was also bigger in the Middle Colonies. Majority of the slaves who came to the middle colonies and New England was caused from a stop over in the West Indies, as the Robin Johns did (Roark, et al.
