It was the first "sucessful colony". It was a royal colony English in fact. It was not as sucessful as it was given credit for...the people wanted gold and wanted to be rich from gold that they thought was in the 'new world'. There was no gold but they looked for it so much that they (population of Jamestown was mostly all men) did not plant or build good houses. They made bad relations with the Indians they always wanted help and their food since the people of Jamestown had none, there was a drought, and it was in a swamp in present day Virginia which was bad land and had mosquitoes and bad water that they had to drink. The disease spread, many died the first winter and new people had to come over. Eventually after about 3 years a few women came to Jamestown.
