ESSAY QUESTION NUMBER 2, PAGE 18
In what ways did the English colonies develop differently from the Spanish and French colonies?
When thinking of different colonies from United States history, the first one that comes to mind is the English colony, in which it was a colony that had an already established abundance of riches, knowledge, and experience. Why is this so? What was so different about English colonies that made them develop differently? All in all, in what ways did the English colonies develop differently from the Spanish and French colonies? English colonies are highly regarded in American and foreign history, there are proven facts, secrets, et cetera as to why they developed differently, that are still being studied and determined today. No matter how many discussions, studies, lectures, et cetera, there are on English colony development, it will always play a big role in the history of the United States. It is known from many study resources that English colonies generally developed faster in many aspects such as economy, social, and political buy why? Could it have been that they were forceful with the natives of America in order to get what they wanted? Could it have been because they already were established in their home country and bought their methods over here? Unfortunately, the first reason …show more content…
is right. When English colonist first settled in America, they were humble, kind, and pleasant with the natives. They tried to learn their ways of hunting, taking shelter, gathering, eating, et cetera. Many times they would even help the natives develop new ways of doing things. The English colonies and the natives of America sort of established a friendship in which they can share ideas on anything and still develop properly. As time grew though, things become more hostile. English colonies wanted more power, population, and prosperity. They felt as though they should keep growing in order to take over this new world. For the natives of America, this was bad news unfortunately. The English colonies would steal, torture, and ransack the natives’ towns, homes, stores, and lives to get what they want. Nothing could stand in the way of English colonies and from this, the population of the natives rapidly decreased and the English colony population increased. Bringing along great wealth, power, and land with it. Why couldn’t French and Spanish colonies do this though? Did they not have the correct resources? Where they just not smart enough? For the French, they became allies of the natives of America. Unlike the English colonies, the French colonies actually stayed “friends” with the natives. They helped them win battles, gather food, hunt, build homes, and so many other things that the natives would actually trade things life fur, spices, et cetera, with the French in order to give thanks. The French chose this method because they were not very skillful in hunting, gathering, or building from natural resources yet. Now for the Spanish colonies, things were completely different. Spanish colonies sort of had a big problem on their hands.
Wherever they settled, they never had enough natural resources. Mainly because they didn’t know how to acquire these resources or they didn’t know where to look for them. This caused the Spanish colonies to take a little more time and effort to develop in which they had to work extra hard, extra fast, and extra smart in order to achieve what they wanted mainly, colonization. Fortunately though, they did settle in places such as Florida, New Mexico, Texas, and California, in which they did a very good job at surviving because, these as some of the most popular states in the United
States. Whatever you opinion may be on why English colonies developed differently from the Spanish and French colonies, just know that it is proven that they were very cruel and unusual to the natives of America in order to get what they want. The English colonies did a complete spin and changed into a whole different colony once they saw that they were receiving things they needed in order to colonize. Unfortunately, the kind and simple natives had to endure this kind of treatment, causing them to decrease in population and not be able to thrive like the English colonies could now do. Kudos can be given to the English colony though, for using such a devious plan, just to get ahead. You go English colonies.
