Maryland was important to Roman Catholics as it was founded by Catholics seeking religious freedom. It passed the Act of Toleration in 1649 providing freedom of religion for Christians. The Carolinas were founded by English nobles and attracted settlers from the Caribbean growing rice and indigo. Georgia was founded by James Oglethorpe to be a debtor colony. The Southern Colonies developed tidewater plantations along the coast growing cash crops like tobacco with enslaved African labor and the backcountry with small farms and fewer slaves growing for local markets. The slave trade grew significantly in the 1700s as plantations relied on slave labor and millions of Africans were transported to the colonies where racist slave codes were enacted though some spoke against it

The west indies
The West Indies are a region consisting of over 7,000 islands in the Caribbean with a total population of 37.5 million people from various ethnic groups like Africans, Native Americans, and Europeans. The largest English-speaking islands are Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, and their economies rely heavily on tourism, agriculture like sugar and bananas, as well as natural resources like petroleum. The culture of the West Indies is influenced by colonial British rule as well as African and East Indian ethnic groups, being expressed through music, festivals, family values, and architecture.

This ppt is designed for 5th grade study of colonization of the West Indies. It covers the production of rum, the importing of slaves, the triangle trade routes.
September4-5_Colonization
The economy of colonial South Carolina was largely based on plantation agriculture and slave labor. As indentured servants became less available, African slaves were imported to work the labor-intensive crops of rice and indigo. They brought agricultural knowledge and skills from West Africa. The slave population grew significantly, outnumbering whites and raising control issues, evidenced by the violent Stono Rebellion. In response, slave codes were strengthened to more tightly regulate slaves. Nonetheless, the plantation system and slave trade continued expanding, fueling South Carolina's prosperous colonial economy.

The first permanent English settlement in North America was established at Jamestown, Virginia in 1607. The settlers struggled at first, dealing with a lack of fresh water, unskilled laborers, and conflicts with the local Powhatan Indians. John Smith helped the colony survive by establishing trade with the Powhatans. The colony was saved from ruin by the introduction of tobacco as a lucrative cash crop by John Rolfe, which also led to a stable society in Jamestown. Though the colonists faced many hardships, Jamestown proved that permanent English colonies could succeed in North America and opened the door for further colonization and the eventual formation of the United States.
America colonies
By the early 1700s, piracy had become a liability for empires as pirates attacked merchant ships. Pirates operated under an egalitarian system and shared loot evenly. Between 1716 and 1726, around 500 pirates were executed, and by 1730 piracy was virtually extinct. In the 1700s, trade in the Atlantic colonies became more complex as prosperity shifted. Economic growth increased due to improved information flow and more complex trade patterns. However, poverty also grew in urban areas due to reduced employment in winter months. Revivals preached the threat of impending doom to shock listeners into realizing their sinful ways, but revivals declined after a minister committed suicide in 1735.

Carolina
The document summarizes the history of Carolina and Georgia colonies from the 17th-18th centuries. It describes how Carolina leaders recruited Native Americans as slave catchers, establishing a gun trade that made the natives dependent on the colonists for weapons. It also discusses the development of the rice and indigo plantations that made Carolina wealthy but relied on slave labor. The document notes a major slave rebellion in 1731 and the harsh treatment of slaves. It then summarizes the founding of Georgia in 1730 with the goal of restricting land holdings and banning slavery, though these restrictions were later lifted.
Southern colonies
The Mason-Dixon Line separated the Mid-Atlantic and Southern colonies. Maryland was founded in 1632 as a refuge for Catholics and allowed freedom of religion. Virginia began with the Jamestown settlement in 1607 and grew tobacco as its main crop. Bacon's Rebellion in 1676 was led by Nathaniel Bacon against Native Americans and the capital of Jamestown was burned. The Carolinas were founded later and grew rice and indigo as major crops, using enslaved Native Americans and Africans who eventually outnumbered white settlers. Georgia was founded in 1732 by James Oglethorpe as a place for debtors, starting with smaller farms and no slavery.
Before there was carolina there was barbados
The early settlers of Carolina came from Barbados. Barbados was initially settled in the 1600s by the English, who established large sugar plantations that were worked by enslaved Africans. Many settlers and the plantation system were later transported from Barbados to Carolina. Place names, political systems like the parish divisions, and crops like sugar cane that were important in Barbados were also established in Carolina by these early settlers. The connections between the settlements of Barbados and Carolina shaped them both culturally and economically in their early years.

It concludes that the colonial population grew from 250,000 settlers in 1700 to nearly 2.5 million by 1775.
English Colonies of North America
The document summarizes aspects of early English colonies in North America, including Virginia, Puritan settlements, and relations with native peoples. It describes Sir Walter Raleigh's failed attempts to establish colonies at Roanoke in the 1580s. The successful Jamestown colony was established in 1607 on the James River in Virginia. Tobacco soon became a lucrative cash crop. The Powhatan Indians lived in the coastal region and had a chief named Powhatan. Relations deteriorated as English colonists expanded onto native lands. The Puritans viewed the natives as pagans and sought their conversion. This led to conflicts like the Pequot War and King Philip's War, which devastated native populations.
American colonies
The Carolinas were created as a new colony north of Florida and south of the Chesapeake Bay to honor King Charles II. It included North and South Carolina and later Georgia. To increase colonists and economic development, the Lords Proprietor offered settlers large land grants and freedom of religion. The colonist population grew from 200 to over 6,600. Native Americans were turned into slave catchers and traded animal hides, slaves, and guns with the colonists in exchange for goods like cloth and rum. Georgia was established as a new colony south of the Savannah River by the Georgia Trustees to alleviate English poverty, initially prohibiting slavery, though it was later permitted which increased the population.
The English Colonies of North America
- Carolina was established in the 1670s by West Indian planters to honor King Charles II. It included present-day North and South Carolina and Georgia and was owned by 8 of the king's political favorites. It attracted colonists by offering religious tolerance, political representation, and large land grants. The population grew from 200 colonists in 1670 to 6,600 in 1700.
- Virginia was originally named for the whole coast from Florida to Canada. It started with failed schemes like gold mining but found profit in tobacco, allowing explosive growth. Planters learned to raise tobacco successfully in 1616, fueling a boom. This increased the population from 350 in 1616 to 13,000 by 1650.
Ch 6 day 9 - the loyalist migration impacts
By 1790, 10% of Quebec's population was made up of British Loyalists who fled the United States after the American Revolution. This caused tensions as the Loyalists wanted British laws and customs while the existing Canadiens were concerned about protections granted by the Quebec Act. Britain addressed these issues by dividing Quebec into Upper and Lower Canada, establishing British laws in Upper Canada and allowing French customs and laws in Lower Canada. This helped appease both the Loyalists and Canadiens.
Acadians
The Acadian Expulsion from 1755-1765 saw over 7,000 Acadians forcibly removed from their homeland in Acadia (modern day Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and parts of eastern Quebec) by the British. The Acadians had lived in the region for over 150 years but were seen as threats because they were French-speaking and refused to take an oath of allegiance to Britain. In 1755, the British forcibly removed Acadians from their farms and burned their villages, scattering the population across the British colonies in North America and beyond, splitting up families. This led to great hardship and loss of life for the Acadian people and their culture, with some later settling in Louisiana,
The English in North America
The document summarizes the development of colonial societies in the Chesapeake Bay region and Carolina from the 17th to early 18th centuries. It describes how the colonies relied heavily on indentured servants and later African slaves for labor. It also discusses the relationships and conflicts between colonists and native tribes over land and trade. The economies transitioned from tobacco to rice cultivation, and slavery became entrenched.
The Acadians
The Acadians were the first French settlers in Nova Scotia, with the first census in 1671 counting 392 people. They settled throughout the region, including establishing the fortress town of Louisbourg in 1719. However, during the French and Indian War in 1755, the British demanded the Acadians swear allegiance to fight against the French, which most refused. In response, the British forcibly deported approximately 6,000 Acadians from their homes on August 11th, burning communities and splitting families apart in what the Acadians call the "Grand Derangement". The deportation displaced between 10,000 to 18,000 Acadians, with many dying or imprisoned. Though some returned to the region,
Acadian deportation 1
The document provides a history of the Acadians and the events leading up to the Great Deportation between 1755-1763. It describes how the Acadians originated and settled in the region, and the ongoing territorial disputes between the British and French for control over Acadia. Tensions increased as the Acadians refused to sign an oath pledging allegiance to Britain. In 1755, the British deported thousands of Acadians to other colonies to weaken their community and eliminate the threat of French influence in the region. Over 10,000 Acadians lived in Nova Scotia at the time, with around 6,000 deported and 4,000 escaping or hiding in the woods.
English Colonies of North America
After successfully colonizing Ireland, England sought to expand its colonial holdings by establishing colonies along the North American coast, which they called Virginia in honor of Queen Elizabeth I. The first English families settled in Chesapeake Bay in 1587 and encountered about 24,000 Native Americans divided into various tribes. In the 1670s, English aristocrats established the colony of Carolina further south to grow rice and indigo and engage in the lucrative slave trade, recruiting Native Americans to capture runaway slaves in exchange for guns. By the 1750s, Carolina had become a wealthy plantation colony and leading producer of crops like rice, rivaling the colonies in the Chesapeake and West Indies.
Colonial america
The document summarizes key events in colonial American history between the 17th and 18th centuries. It discusses the Glorious Revolution in England, the growth of trade and population in the colonies, religious revivals that emphasized emotional conversion experiences, the acquisition of horses and guns by Native Americans and how this changed warfare, Indian rebellions against encroaching European settlers, and how Russians exploited Siberian tribes and the Aleut people in Alaska for fur.
Famine
The document summarizes key details about the Irish Potato Famine of 1845-1847. It describes how the fungus Phytophthora infestans arrived from Europe and destroyed the potato crop, which the Irish heavily relied on. Within a few years, over 1 million people had died from starvation or famine-related diseases. Mass emigration from Ireland also occurred, with over 2 million Irish people relocating to places like North America to escape the famine.
Jamestown Settlement
The document summarizes the early history of European exploration and settlement in North America, focusing on England's first colonies in Virginia. It describes England's first settlement on Roanoke Island under Sir Walter Raleigh. It then discusses the founding of Jamestown in 1607 as the first permanent English settlement, noting the difficulties colonists faced with disease, harsh winters, and lack of food and water. It highlights the roles of John Smith and Pocahontas in establishing relations with local Native Americans and finding food sources. The summary concludes that tobacco eventually became a cash crop and indentured servants were used to meet labor demands, while self-government began through the establishment of the House of Burgesses.

The French Revolution Intro
The French society of the 17th century was strictly hierarchical, with the king and aristocrats at the top and peasants and serfs at the bottom. Peasants lived difficult, brutal lives working small plots of land for little reward and facing epidemics, famine, and forced labor for their lords. City life in large cities like Paris brought some escape from the countryside but most urban residents still lived in poverty and faced high food prices and inflation. The growing middle class, or bourgeoisie, faced laws, regulations, monopolies and taxes that made it difficult to profit from new businesses and investments. By the late 18th century, financial troubles from wars and the lavish court of Louis XIV had left the French government deeply

US Southern Colonies Presentation
The document summarizes key aspects of the founding and development of the Southern Colonies of Virginia, North and South Carolina, and Georgia in 3 paragraphs.
Virginia was founded by commercial companies seeking trading partners and wealth. It struggled initially but developed a tobacco-based slave economy and representative government. North and South Carolina were settled to relieve population pressures in Virginia, relying on agriculture, slaves, and proprietary rule. Georgia was established later, receiving its charter in 1663 and developing fertile lands along rivers through the use of slaves and as a proprietary then royal colony.
Jamestown
The Virginia Company of London established the Jamestown colony in 1607 as a joint stock company to try to establish an English colony along the Atlantic coast of North America. The colony struggled at first due to being located in a swampland, lack of skills, disease, and attacks from Native Americans, but was saved by adopting tobacco as a cash crop and the leadership of John Smith in making friendly relations with local tribes.
(2015) Indigenous Peoples of Canada (33.0 MB)
The document provides a detailed overview of the indigenous groups that inhabited Canada before European contact, including:
1) There were three main groups - First Nations, Inuit, and Métis. First Nations lived south of the tree line and were the most diverse, while the Inuit lived in the Arctic and were the most homogeneous.
2) First Nations arrived over 15,000 years ago via the Bering Strait land bridge. They lived as hunters and gatherers with an intimate knowledge of local ecosystems. Their populations were sparse but densest on the Northwest Coast and in the Iroquois Nation.
3) Cultures and languages varied widely by region but most societies were egalitarian with consensus-
12 Cash Crops From The Thirteen Colonies
Tobacco was a major cash crop grown in warm, fertile soil in the southern colonies. Farmers would plant, water, and harvest the tobacco leaves, which were then used to make cigarettes and other tobacco products. Rice was also grown widely in the southern colonies, with farmers planting seeds, watering until harvest, then drying the rice. Rice was consumed or sold domestically and internationally, while tobacco provided income through export and domestic sales of cigarettes.
The southern colonies
The Southern Colonies consisted of Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. Key crops grown included tobacco, rice, and indigo, aided by the warm climate and rich land. Plantations and large farms utilized many slaves and indentured servants, who were poor people from England willing to work without pay for 3-7 years in exchange for eventual freedom, to produce crops and make money for the colonists.

Plantations and large farms utilized many slaves and indentured servants, who were poor people from England willing to work without pay for 3-7 years in exchange for eventual freedom, to produce crops and make money for the colonists.

This is a project I made about the Colonies, feel free to use it in any classroom or presentation, it covers the colonizing to the writing of the Constitution and everything in between.
Chapter 3.4 2013
The document summarizes the Southern Colonies, which included Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. Virginia was the largest colony and grew tobacco, but conflicts arose with Native Americans as settlers needed more land. Nathaniel Bacon led raids on the Native Americans and then burned down Jamestown. Maryland was set up for Catholics but welcomed other religions. North Carolina had small tobacco farms while South Carolina developed plantations for rice. Georgia was originally set aside for debtors and banned slavery, focusing on small farms.
Engaging clinical staff and non-users
This document discusses various strategies for clinical librarians to engage with clinical staff and non-users at hospitals. It suggests outreach activities like assisting with journal clubs, hosting informal events to share resources, and promoting self-paced online information skills training. The document also proposes using mobile apps, social media, and repositories to make library resources more accessible digitally while still supporting traditional print materials. The overarching message is that libraries should take a creative and audience-aware approach to crafting services that are both relevant and engaging.

7.1 Settling the Southern Colonies
Maryland was founded by English Catholics seeking religious freedom led by George Calvert. It was carefully planned to avoid failure. Tobacco became a major cash crop, though most colonists struggled as indentured servants on farms. In 1649, Maryland passed the Toleration Act allowing religious freedom for Christians. Colonists then moved south, establishing the Carolinas with a written constitution. The colony became too large and split into North and South Carolina. Georgia was founded to gain control of the area, settling debtors who had to defend the land but could start anew, though slavery was eventually allowed and plantations increased. Settlers also moved westward for more land.
The english in north america
The region of Virginia was named after Queen Elizabeth I and first colonized by Walter Raleigh in 1585. The early colonial economy relied on tobacco farming and exporting the crop to England for profit. Relations with local Algonquian tribes deteriorated as colonists took more of their land for tobacco cultivation. Puritan missionaries also tried to forcibly convert and assimilate the tribes, which contributed to conflicts like King Philip's War in 1636 and the collapse of Indian resistance by 1676.
Georgia History Chapter 7
The document provides information about life for early settlers in colonial Georgia. It describes the founding of the Ebenezer settlement by Salzburger Lutherans in 1734.

Though conditions were difficult, the Salzburgers became successful farmers and the Ebenezer community grew. The document also discusses the introduction and growth of slavery in Georgia from the 1730s onward and the slave codes passed to control the behavior of enslaved people.

Presentation9
The document summarizes aspects of life in the Old South from 1790 to 1850, including:
1) The economies of the Chesapeake region and Lowcountry relied heavily on tobacco and rice production using slave labor.
2) The invention of the cotton gin in 1793 and the rise of short-staple cotton expanded slavery throughout the Deep South as cotton became highly profitable.
3) While some Southern whites owned small farms or no slaves, the plantation system dominated the economy, and the number of slaves owned was a major status symbol for wealthy planters.
Thirteen colonies
The document summarizes the 13 original colonies in British North America, dividing them into three regional groups: New England Colonies (Rhode Island, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire), Middle Colonies (Delaware, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey), and Southern Colonies (Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia).

Colonialism
The document summarizes the expansion of colonialism in Europe and the Americas beginning in the 15th century. It describes how trade routes were originally controlled by Arab traders, but European powers like Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands and England sought new routes to access goods from Asia. This led to Columbus reaching the Americas in 1492 while searching for a route to India, and Vasco da Gama finding a sea route around Africa to India in 1498. European colonialism in the Americas involved conquering and exploiting native populations, importing African slaves to work plantations, and controlling colonial economies to extract resources from colonies while limiting their development. Many Latin American countries gained independence in the early 19th century after revolts against Spanish rule.

Ch 9 section 4notes
John Adams handled the conflict with France by sending diplomats to discuss neutral rights after French ships began seizing American vessels. The French agents demanded a bribe and loan before negotiating, known as the XYZ Affair. Adams told Congress but avoided war, instead strengthening the navy. The Federalist party split over whether to go to war with France, with Hamilton wanting war and Adams wanting to avoid it. The Alien and Sedition Acts raised states' rights issues by allowing deportation of aliens and criticism of government to be outlawed, which Jefferson and Republicans opposed by arguing states could nullify federal laws.
Chapter 9 section 3 notes
Many Americans distrusted political parties because they had seen how factions in Britain prioritized personal gain over public good. There were also concerns that parties could threaten national unity. While Hamilton favored a strong central government, Jefferson favored stronger state governments and a strict interpretation of the Constitution. The emergence of the Federalist and Republican parties in the 1796 election increased political tensions between their supporters.
Chapter 9 sec 2 notes
The document discusses American opinions on the French Revolution and Washington's desire for American neutrality in foreign affairs. [1] There were divided American views on the French Revolution, with some supporting the struggle for liberty but others opposing the violence, and Washington issued a proclamation of neutrality to avoid taking sides in the war between France and England. [2] Washington wanted to maintain neutrality as tensions rose between the allies France and England following the revolution, but it was difficult for America to remain neutral as European powers seized American ships. [3] In his farewell address, Washington advised staying out of European affairs.
Chapter9 notessec1
Washington took several steps to establish the new government. He was inaugurated as the first President in 1789. Congress established five cabinet departments to advise the President. Washington set a precedent by choosing well-known leaders for his cabinet. Congress also passed the Judiciary Act of 1789, establishing the federal court system and appointing John Jay as the first Chief Justice. Washington further set a precedent by deciding not to seek a third term.
Hamilton proposed a plan to reduce the national debt and build the economy. His plan was to have the federal government assume both federal and state debts by issuing new bonds. This sparked debate between Hamilton and Madison. Hamilton's plan eventually passed as part of a compromise to locate the capital in

The three branches of the U.S. government are the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. Each branch has separate powers and responsibilities to prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful. The system of separation of powers aims to create checks and balances between the branches.
Ch8 part 4
State constitutions are similar to the US Constitution in that they establish three branches of government and include bills of rights, but they are generally longer and allow citizens to more easily amend the constitution. State constitutions give states responsibility for law enforcement, education, infrastructure, and providing some public services, while local governments focus on services within counties, cities, and towns like schools, public safety, and utilities.
