They came for a variety of reasons, but all wanted a better life. Carving a better life out of the vast wilderness the early colonists found in North America challenged even the hardiest of those early pioneers. In England and in much of Europe, the poor were chronically unemployed, and opportunities to rise out of poverty were scarce; by comparison, almost any alternative might have seemed promising, Europe in 1600 had lots of push. On the other hand, conditions in early America were difficult, to say the least, but the “pull factor” was helped by what can only be characterized as propaganda. Proprietors of the companies that sponsored American colonies quickly realized that settlers were needed if their investments were to show a return, and their efforts to recruit settlers made the New World appear far more attractive than conditions warranted.
Classical societies traded in the Silk Road because it was the fastest and cheapest to do. Their marine trading was not as developed. But when they collapsed the Silk Road trading dropped and marine trading picked up. The Indian Ocean Basin trade took its place because it was faster and cheaper, as boats and marine technology improved. When the Mongols came to power, the Silk Road trading increased because the Mongols supported for they never had to deal with marine trading.
However, most people looked badly upon religions outside of their own. One of the most close-minded settlements in America was New England, this was both a good and a bad thing as it brought the settlers closer together, but also pushed outsiders away. The Middle Colonies accepted many more churches, as there was a greater amount of ethnic and religious diversity. This shows the importance of religion by highlighting how it brought people with common religions together to form colonies and gave incentive to people who lived in England to immigrate to America for more religious freedom than they previously had. Colonists were provided with even more reason to practice their religion and continue their work in America for a better, more liberated life.
This only led to the downfall of small business since now they wouldn’t have much inventory and as many customers to sell their goods too. * The Atlantic economy created a new type of trade call the Triangular trade which grouped all the people of the Atlantic colony into one. * The slaves and the new economy worked a lot better since the demand on the slaves increased significantly. * Mercantilism * Is were all the great powers go against one another to see who has the most power and
Between 1945-1968 the occupational structure is different from that in 1968-2012. People don’t get ahead in their class structures so easily. This connects with the Utchille chapter on the Steady Job decrease, Zweig shows now it’s a decrease in downward mobility. All you have to do is work hard to come up (American Dream) is the myth behind upward mobility. However it doesn’t guarantee a jump in the upper social class.
The South could win by literally just outlasting the North’s advantages. Even though the North had soldiers in greater numbers, they had to leave more soldiers behind to secure their already owned land. Which became a weakness for them. The South thought slavery would be good for them. While the white men were fighting, the slaves had to continue laboring on farms or supporting the South’s war efforts.
Socialization is a vital part of our daily lives. As our lives change from day to day, year to year our socialization skills also change. In my opinion, the social structure of war creates a new set of values and norm. As I learned from my history teacher, after the Second World War people realized that it is nearly impossible for European to live with economic conflicts, because mostly the economic conflict brings the military solutions which never work. And the Europe was started to integrate each other in an economic manner.
This was after the Jonathon Edwards shot Squanto’s new tribe leader’s son. Lastly, The English settlers benefitted the most. They were taught how to work and survive the new land of America. They had the better technology and weapons. They could easily hunt more and fight off anyone or anything that attacked them.
People now want freedom more than anything in their lives, and to be able to do their own things. The lifestyles of American families have been changed; people now have the right to speak up, even if they are students. There is no punishment for children, because it's against the law. People go to work full time, they don't spend much time being together and talking. Parents spent most of their time for their jobs and conducting business, leaving less time for their children.
This was probably the most interaction people would have with each other; yet, a very respectful and genuine concern of welfare seemed to show among the rural communities. When the Industrial Revolution approached, the migration of people toward areas closer to the factories increased tremendously. As the population in urban areas enlarged, “chaos” began to ensue within the new community. Overpopulation and unsanitary living conditions transpired. Living close to the factories was convenient but uncomfortable and unhygienic since a structured city had not been developed yet.
