New Haven, Connecticut was founded in 1638 by Reverend John Davenport and Theophilus Eaton, who hoped to develop the city's harbor for trade and transportation. While international trade increased in the 18th century, New Haven remained largely agricultural until later. In the 19th century, New Haven saw growth of its Long Wharf, oyster industry, and transportation including steamboats, canals, and railroads, transforming the city and economy. Recreational activities also emerged along the waterfront for residents.

Middle colonies
The Middle Colonies of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware were established for different reasons, such as trade in New York and religious freedom in Pennsylvania. The economy was based on farming various cash crops and fishing. Quakers settled in Pennsylvania seeking religious tolerance. The Navigation Acts restricted colonial trade and shipping to benefit England, angering the colonists.
Middle colonies
The Middle Colonies included New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. Farmers in these colonies prospered due to rich soil, a mild climate, and long growing seasons. They produced surplus crops like grains to sell for profit, earning the region the name "bread basket colonies." Major port cities like Philadelphia and New York developed where farmers shipped their goods via rivers to be exported. Life in the Middle Colonies was diverse, with people of many religions and backgrounds living together in a spirit of cooperation.
Middle colonies
The document discusses the founding and early economies of four original colonies - New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. It notes that New York was founded by the Dutch as New Amsterdam for trading but was later captured by the English. Pennsylvania was founded by William Penn as a safe haven for Quakers to practice their religion freely. New Jersey was established by Carteret and Berkley as a proprietary colony offering religious and political freedom. Delaware's settlement began as a Swedish trading post called Fort Christina. The document also briefly discusses the practice of mercantilism in Europe and the Middle Passage slave trade.
6.2 Life in the Middle Colonies
The Middle Colonies attracted a mix of immigrants from Dutch, French, Belgian, and Swedish backgrounds who sought a better life. The Great Awakening religious movement in the region was led by George Whitefield and emphasized emotional, personal faith and tolerance of differing views. People of many religious groups lived together in the Middle Colonies and enjoyed community barn raisings and other social events in their free time. The largest city, Philadelphia, was purposefully designed and grew under leaders like Benjamin Franklin who established important civic institutions.
5. S2013 Henry, Becket and the Law
The reign of Henry II as he pursues the goals of ridding the land of adulterine (unauthorized) castles and criminous clerks. The attempt to separate secular and religious court systems runs into opposition from Becket.
Middle Ages
The document summarizes key events and aspects of life in medieval England following the Norman conquest in 1066. William, Duke of Normandy, invaded England after the death of King Edward the Confessor, claiming that he was the rightful heir to the English throne. This led to the Battle of Hastings in 1066, where William defeated the English army and became King William I, establishing Norman rule in England. The Normans introduced changes like constructing grand cathedrals, implementing the feudal system, and conducting a census of England known as the Domesday Book.
The Middle Colonies
The Middle Colonies were founded in the mid-1600s and were located between New England and the Southern colonies. The Dutch originally founded New York as New Netherland, but it came under English control in 1664. New Jersey was established as a proprietary colony by the Duke of York in the 1660s. Pennsylvania was founded by William Penn in 1682 as a place for Quakers to worship freely. The Middle Colonies had a diverse population and economies focused on farming and trade.

New France
1) In the early 1500s, European powers like France began sending explorers to establish colonies in North America, with Jacques Cartier exploring the St. Lawrence River region of present-day Canada and claiming it for France.
2) France established the colony of New France in this region in the early 1600s through the efforts of explorers like Cartier and Samuel de Champlain, who founded Quebec City in 1608.
3) New France grew slowly as a mix of fur traders, Catholic missionaries, and seigneurs with tenant farmer habitants due to a reluctance to encourage large-scale settlement compared to the English colonies. This population disparity ultimately contributed to France losing New France to Britain after
Soc studies #10 the middle colonies
The Middle Colonies of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware experienced population growth in the 1600s due to large land grants and religious tolerance. The Dutch originally settled New York as New Netherland, but it was captured by the English in 1664 and renamed. Pennsylvania was founded by William Penn in 1681 as a refuge for Quakers who faced persecution. Farmers in the Middle Colonies grew staple crops like wheat and practiced religious freedom.

Middle colonies
The Middle Colonies document provides information on the four colonies that made up the Middle Colonies region - New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. It summarizes that the Middle Colonies were settled on rich river lands, making farming and mining important economic activities. It also notes that the English created New York and New Jersey from former Dutch territory, and that William Penn established Pennsylvania to provide refuge for Quakers. The economies of the Middle Colonies relied on both subsistence and commercial farming of crops like wheat, oats, and corn, as well as trade with other colonies facilitated by the region's rivers and harbors.
Venice's Reputation during the Elizabethan Period
During the Elizabethan period:
- Venice was a very wealthy and popular city known for entertainment, pleasure, and tourism. It was comparable to today's Las Vegas.
- Venice controlled a large sea empire and was a center for trade, with people from different nationalities coming to Venice to do business.
- While Venice was generally more accepting of different cultures than Elizabethan London, there was still conflict between Jews and Christians. Jews faced restrictions and antisemitism, having to live in ghettos and wear identifying clothing.
Middle colonies
The Middle Colonies of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware differed from New England in having more religious diversity and focusing on agriculture rather than fishing and shipbuilding. They grew cash crops like grains and had natural resources like iron ore. Population was more spread out on small family farms rather than concentrated in towns. New York started as the Dutch colony of New Netherland before being taken over by the English. Pennsylvania was founded by William Penn as a colony with an emphasis on religious freedom and equality.
American colonies
The Glorious Revolution in England led to William and Mary taking the throne as Protestants, which relieved English officials but created uncertainty over control of the colonies. Piracy was seen as hindering empire success by the 1700s, though pirates had shared plunder equally except for the captain. Revivals in the 1700s emphasized emotional conversion over reason and eventually became intercolonial.
Ch 5 sec 2
Feudalism began to decline as towns formed and strong central governments established. Towns grew due to increased trade and opportunities, though nobles still owned the land. In England, William the Conqueror established the Norman dynasty and Henry II strengthened royal power. In France, Hugh Capet founded the Capetian dynasty and Phillip II expanded royal control over taxes and land. Both countries saw increased authority of central governments over time.
Ch 5 sec 3
The document summarizes the expansion of Europe through the Crusades in the 11th-13th centuries. The Crusades were launched by the Roman Church to regain control of Jerusalem from the Seljuk Turks, though they also helped expand the Church's influence and provided nobles and merchants opportunities for wealth. The Crusades ultimately failed to maintain control of the Holy Land long-term but introduced new technologies and knowledge from the Muslim world back to Europe, fueling economic growth.
China’s fall to foreign influence cp 2012
China had a long history of self-sufficiency and technological advancement before the 18th century when they first encountered Western influence. They produced enough crops and goods like porcelain to support their population without needing trade. In the 18th century, a British ambassador showed Chinese inventions like clocks and balloons to the emperor, but China was unimpressed as they already had more advanced versions. In the 19th century, the British began smuggling highly addictive opium into China against the Chinese government's wishes. When China tried to stop the opium trade, it led to the Opium War in 1839 where Britain easily defeated China's outdated navy. In 1842, China was forced to sign the unequal Treaty of Nanjing
New England Colonies
The New England colonies were founded primarily for religious reasons in the early 1600s. The Puritans wanted to purify the Church of England while the Pilgrims sought complete separation and founded the Plymouth colony after signing the Mayflower Compact. The Massachusetts Bay colony was also founded by Puritans seeking religious freedom led by John Winthrop. However, dissenters like Roger Williams and Anne Hutchinson faced persecution for their religious views, and the Salem Witch Trials led to mass hysteria and executions in 1692. Conflicts with Native Americans included the Pequot War and King Philip's War, changing the colonial landscape.
Soc studies #9 new england colonies
The New England colonies were founded by religious dissenters seeking freedom to practice their faith. The Pilgrims established Plymouth colony in 1620 and signed the Mayflower Compact to govern themselves. Puritans later founded the Massachusetts Bay colony, attracting over 15,000 immigrants during the Great Migration of the 1630s. Religious intolerance led to the founding of additional colonies, including Rhode Island, Connecticut, and New Hampshire, which developed early forms of democratic government and separation of church and state. Conflicts with Native Americans erupted into King Philip's War in 1675, resulting in the decline of indigenous populations in New England.

New York was originally founded as New Netherland by the Dutch and later surrendered to the English without resistance. Pennsylvania was founded by William Penn as a haven for Quakers and had Philadelphia as its major city. The Middle Colonies shared characteristics of ocean industries, some large-scale agriculture, and involvement in the fur trade for New York and Pennsylvania.
6.1 The Middle Colonies
The Middle Colonies of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware were settled in the mid-1600s. The Dutch originally controlled New Netherland, but it was taken over by the English in 1664 and divided into New York and New Jersey. Pennsylvania was founded by William Penn in 1681 as a place for Quakers and others to practice religious freedom. Penn also established fair treatment of Native Americans. The region became known as the "Breadbasket Colonies" due to its fertile land and farming of grains like wheat, corn, and rye.
The Middle Colonies
The Middle Colonies included Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, and Delaware, which had a more diverse society and religious tolerance than New England due to influences from Poland, England, the Netherlands, France, and Germany. The climate supported a longer growing season compared to New England, allowing the Middle Colonies to become the commercial and agricultural center of the 13 colonies known for exporting grains like wheat and rye.
Middle colonies
The middle colonies included New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. Farmers in these colonies benefited from rich soil, mild climate, long growing seasons, and deep rivers. They were able to produce surplus crops for profit, known as cash crops, and shipped them through major port cities like Philadelphia and New York. The colonies featured a diversity of religions and ethnic groups. Farming communities developed alongside growing urban centers like Philadelphia and New York.
History of New York
New York City is made up of five boroughs, the most famous being Manhattan. Manhattan was originally owned by Native Americans but was purchased by Dutch settlers in the 17th century. It later came under British rule. New York City grew tremendously in the late 18th and 19th centuries due to large waves of immigration. Major landmarks include the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Central Park, Broadway theatres, and skyscrapers like the Empire State Building and Chrysler Building. However, the September 11th terrorist attacks in 2001 targeted the World Trade Center towers, destroying them and causing immense loss of life.
New York City
New York City is the largest city in the United States, located in the state of New York. Over 8 million people live in the five boroughs - Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. New York City was first settled by the Dutch in the early 1600s and was later taken over by the British. It has become a global center of business, finance, culture and tourism, with many iconic sites like the Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, Central Park, Times Square, and Rockefeller Center.
Chapter 2 notes
The document discusses how trade expanded in Europe during the Renaissance period. It provides context on the Crusades, which reestablished trade between Europe and the East. The Crusades exposed Europeans to new goods and ideas from Muslim civilizations. This increased demand for Eastern goods and spurred more trade routes. The Italian city-states like Venice, Genoa, and Florence became major trading hubs due to their geography, climate, independent governments, and social structures that supported business and commerce. They competed for control of trade in the Mediterranean.

Data data every where!! Thomas O'Grady
This document discusses security and ethics issues related to data breaches. It notes that in recent years there have been some massive data breaches, including over 77 million customer account details being hacked from Sony's PS3 network. Malware and SQL coding have accounted for many breaches. A 2010 report found that over 71% of hacking attacks were carried out via remote access and desktop services.
