1. The document discusses the differences between how the Spanish, French, and English colonized America. It explores concepts like the "land of freedom" and the "new world" and how these contrasted with the experiences of Native Americans and enslaved Africans.
2. Key factors that helped Europeans gain control over Native Americans included religion, which colonizers used to justify their actions, and profit, as settlers pursued economic opportunities through industries like fishing, lumber, and the slave trade in the South.
3. While colonizers cited religion as motivation, their actions increasingly focused on exploiting resources for wealth, bringing religion and profit into conflict as two driving forces of colonization.

The document discusses several key aspects of European colonization in the Americas:
1) Spanish rules required Native Americans to submit or face war, using rituals to demonstrate God's power and convert them to Catholicism.
2) Europeans arrived for various reasons - the Spanish for trade and gold, the English for religious freedom, the French to spread Christianity and claim land.
3) Religion and profit were intertwined forces driving European conquest and domination over Native Americans, using religion to justify theft of resources and imposition of new laws and culture.
Effects of european settlement in americas
European settlement in the Americas had profound effects on both native peoples and the newcomers. They exchanged knowledge of food items, widening each other's diets. Over time, European weapons proved more powerful than native arms, changing hunting and warfare. As European communities grew and resembled European towns, native villages were often destroyed or displaced. Europeans also tried to impose their Christian religions and languages on native populations, though native spiritual practices and some languages survived. The landscape and culture of the Americas was largely shaped by this encounter between European colonists and the indigenous peoples.

Colonization occurred when European countries like Spain, England, and others went to new lands, took them over by killing and enslaving indigenous populations, and imposed their languages and religions on the local people. Over time, as globalization increased, it led traditional cultures around the world to decline and potentially disappear as Western influence grew stronger globally.

English colonies in america
The English established colonies in North America for various reasons, including religious freedom, opportunities for land ownership, and to expand their empire. The first permanent English colony was Jamestown, founded in 1607 by the Virginia Company. Self-governance developed through entities like the House of Burgesses in Virginia and the Mayflower Compact of the Plymouth Colony. The colonies developed diverse economies including farming, fishing, lumbering and cash crops, and employed indentured servants and slaves to work the land.
Colonization of north america
Christopher Columbus set off from Spain in 1492 on the first voyage to North America in order to trade goods. Virginia's settlements began in 1587 and used tobacco as a cash crop. Maryland was founded in 1632 and was the first settlement to tolerate all Christian faiths, making it appealing to Catholics. Many Europeans immigrated to own land, start farms, and have religious freedom.
Caribbean
Caribbean culture was shaped by colonialism, with Christopher Columbus first discovering the islands and colonists bringing African slaves for labor. Most traditions stem from African heritage while Christianity is dominant, and the primary languages are English and Spanish. During slow seasons, many subsistence farmers migrate to places like the United States for work, then return, and others migrate permanently due to poverty and conflict, sending money home to support families. Agriculture benefits from the tropical climate to grow exports like bananas, coconuts and rice across a short growing season, while fishing and trade also occur through ports.
Impact Of European Exploration And Colonization On Native
European colonization of the Americas significantly impacted native populations from the 15th to 19th centuries. Indigenous groups faced displacement, warfare, enslavement, and diseases brought by Europeans, against which they had no immunity. The Arawak population in Haiti was reduced from 250,000 to just 500 by 1550 due to these factors. Horses introduced by Europeans allowed some tribes to expand their territories but also aided colonizers. Epidemics of diseases like smallpox often immediately followed exploration and destroyed entire villages, with historians estimating up to 80% of some native groups died from European illnesses. The exploration by Europeans marked the beginning of drastic changes to native life in the Americas.
European exploration
European exploration of the Americas began in the late 15th century, inspired by Marco Polo's accounts of wealth in Asia. Christopher Columbus led an expedition for Spain in 1492 hoping to find a western route to Asia, instead discovering islands in the Caribbean. Subsequent European powers including Spain, England, France, and the Netherlands established colonies in North America through the 17th century, with goals of conquest, trade, religion, and settlement. Colonists' interactions with indigenous peoples led to devastating disease outbreaks for Native Americans and the rise of African slavery to replace the local workforce.

Slavery - What You Have Never Been Told
This document provides a summary of the Islamic slave trade compared to the Transatlantic slave trade. It notes that the Islamic slave trade lasted 14 centuries and transported at least 28 million Africans compared to around 11 million in the Transatlantic trade. Conditions were far worse in the Islamic trade, with 80-90% mortality rates during transport compared to 10% in the Transatlantic trade. The sexual exploitation and castration of male slaves was also more common. In contrast to Christian abolitionists, there was no comparable opposition to slavery within the Muslim world.

The World In 1492
In 1492, Europe was made up of many small states uniting into new kingdoms. Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain sponsored Columbus' voyage to the Americas, hoping to spread Catholicism and find new trade routes. China was struggling with bureaucracy and defending against northern invaders, while the Muslim Ottoman Empire dominated North Africa and Western Asia. In the Americas, advanced civilizations like the Aztecs, Incas and Mayans controlled much of the territory, relying on agriculture and trade but lacking technology like firearms that would be introduced by European colonizers.
The Columbian Exchange Essay
The Columbian Exchange was the widespread transfer of plants, animals, culture, human populations, technology, and ideas between Europe and the Americas beginning in the late 15th century following Christopher Columbus's voyage to the Americas in 1492. This exchange introduced new food crops, domesticated animals, diseases, and technologies between the Eastern and Western hemispheres, significantly impacting societies on both sides of the Atlantic. Some consequences of the exchange included the decline of Native American populations due to introduced diseases, as well as the growth of the transatlantic slave trade as populations declined. The exchange also resulted in the spread of new crops, religions, and cultures globally.

European Colonization Cons
European colonization of the Americas and other parts of the world had many consequences, both positive and negative, depending on one's perspective. For colonized peoples, it disrupted traditional ways of life and forced assimilation to European cultures. It also introduced diseases that devastated native populations who had no immunity. However, it also spread new technologies and religions to colonized lands. For the European powers, colonization provided resources, wealth and economic opportunities that contributed to their development as powerful nations. Overall, the documents discuss how European colonization had wide-ranging impacts, both beneficial and harmful, depending on whether one was among the colonizers or colonized.

Dr. Spencer Wells uses DNA to trace the existence of humans to a single man who lived in Africa over 60,000 years ago. This gives insight into our evolutionary past and shows that we all descended from an African bushman who was forced to migrate in search of food during a period of climate change. James Burke argues that human advancement is driven by our innate curiosity and desire to explore, which can both help and hinder societies. Climate change, natural disasters, and diseases have significantly impacted human civilizations throughout history by causing droughts, starvation, and the spread of new diseases.

Before exploration, different regions were isolated from one another, but the push for trade and domination led countries like Portugal and Spain to explore and conquer new civilizations.

New world colonization in the age of discovery
- 1. New world colonization in the age of discovery Manuela Navas Mariana Gutierrez 7a Social studies 2009-2010
- 3. 2. Christopher Columbus colonization to America started when he convinced the king and queen of Spain to give him some boats, so that he could prove his theory. Then he sailed on the ocean, in the year 1492. He arrived in a new world, populated with dark-skinned savages, whom he educated and converted to the true gospel of Christ. Soon, people flocked to the new world, bringing the Negroes of Africa with them. People thought that the new land was a land of freedom, opportunity and wealth for Europeans immigrants, who were blessed by the watchful hand of providence. A perspective fails to recognize what the new world meant to thousands of Africans, who instead of freedom, found themselves in chains in the new world. The natives Americans also agree with the Africans thought, because that was their land and now they were victims of the European rules.
- 4. 3. What are the primal factors that would help the Europeans in taking control over the Native Americans; develop each one of them? The begin of the Europeancolonization of the Americas is typically dated to 1492, Spanish expedition by Christopher Columbus reached the Americas, after which European exploration rapidly expanded, at first through much of the Caribbean Sea region and, since the 16th century. In 1497, John Cabot was the first European to land in North America. A year later, Columbus reached the South American mainland. the entire Western Hemisphere come under the domination of European nations, leading to changes to its landscape, population, and plant and animal life. In the 19th century alone over 50 million people left Europe for the Americas. The post-1492 era is known as the period of the Columbian Exchange.
- 5. 4. Why is religion a basic force in the colonization of America? The religion was the basic force in the colonization of America because it was the protection that the conquerors used to have the sustain to come to America and to submit and to slave the aborigines and this way to be able to extract all the wealth’s in America
- 6. 5. Why is profit a basic force in the colonization of America? Because of the soil which was really poor, many people had to work in the industries of fishing and loading to be able to earn some money. The settlers also sold slaves in the south for profit.
- 7. 6. RELIGION AND PROFIT COME TOGETHER INTO A DEVIL’S POT, IT IS EVIDENT THAT IN PURSUING TO CONQUEST PEOPLES AND LANDS, RELIGION WAS ONLY A MORTAL SHIELD TO WHAT BECAME THE LOOTING AND HACKING OF OUR WEALTH AND COSTUMS TO THE EUROPEAN SETTLERS. ARE YOU IN AGREEMENT WITH THIS STATEMENT OR ARE WE BETTER OFF BEING CONQUERED BY A MORE ADVANCE CULTURE?, STATE YOUR ASSESMENT IN A COMPOSITION. If we would be conquered by a more advance culture. We would be different in all terms. It would be a different culture. Now we have different things around like lands rich in sand and those things. We used to be a different culture from what we are now, those days of the conquest we were all slaves and we didn’t had the right to vote but now we had acquired some rights. If we were conquered by a more advanced culture eventually things probably would be the same. Religion was one of the most important things for the Europeans for our conquest. For them, everyone had to believe in the same things and in the same god. But then, when people started to open in different thinking's how Europeans can think that they conquered us by the religion, if everybody change.
