EEG+England's+Colonization

The English colonized the new world for resons greater than Spain and Portugul's succees. They were having problems of their own, including a depression. This

depression helped spark the new world colonization with the promise of gold it brought. Howerver, little did they know that the Antlantic Coast had absolutely no gold at

all. They continued to stay in the New World after finding this fact, but they quickly ran out of food. Food shortage caused the colonists to trade with the merderous

Indians. Not only were the Indians killing them, but the colonists also killed fellow colonists to eat! They also ate, amoung other things, killed Indians, horses, goats, and

sheep. For the next twenty years, the colonies of the New World's populations fluxuated. Dispite these hard times, the colonists stayed because they kept their pride.

They also had only a slightly better time in England; they actually had food in England, however. Most people that moved to the New World put their money in as

investors. This caused many to hope to strike it rich and gain much from their investments in the Virginia Company. Colonists may have spent all of their money on their

boat ride and their investment, giving them nothing to come back to. These reasons of econmical, social, and mental proprtions overpowered the need to best Spain's

and Portugul's success.
