Jamestown y plymouth

Jamestown & Plymouth.

During the United States history there’s been a great amount of events that were very important for its development. Two of these happened way back, back to where it allstarted, Colonization. The foundation of the few first colonies in the United States, Jamestown & Plymouth. In this essay I will depict the differences and similarities of these two very importantcolonies.
People have always wanted wealth, even in the 1600s; therefore they go where ever money takes them. During the 17th Century, money took them to a new, exotic place, America.

Then John Smith was sent from London to Jamestown. Smith brought with him tough new rules andthings went well after that, but good things don’t last long. In 1609 Smith goes back to England and things get real ugly real fast in Jamestown. Their relationship with the Native Americans turnedto nothing and they refuse to give them more food. The winter of 1609-1610 takes the name of the “Starving Time”. When the spring of 1610 came, only 60 were left. They sent more people and suppliesfrom England and our colonists start to see the heads up. Tobacco became very popular in all Europe when they started to grow it. More and more people kept coming from England; our country was growing....
