As a colony dedicated to religious freedom.
Because they needed to make another colony
A, Georgia.
Roanoke Colony, founded by Sir Walter Raleigh, preceded Jamestown but it disappeared. Had it survived it would have been the first English colony.
The reason for founding the colony of Connecticut was for more religious and economic freedom. Thomas Hooker founded this colony in 1636 in Hartford when he and his congregation left Massachusetts after a disagreement with Puritan leaders.
severe drought made it difficult for the settlers to cultivate crops.
His name was Captain John Smith. The reason why the colony survived with his help was because he made them work hard or leave the colony.
The primary reason for the near failure of the Jamestown colony was its inability to grow crops and deal with diseases.The British crown stepped in to assist the colony.
There can be two answers to this question. The classical answer is Jamestown, as being the first successful colony established by the British, the other being the colony established in Roanoke (spelling?). This colony mysteriously disappeared for no reason at all, thus the reason for the two way answer.
Jamestown is important because it is a historic United States town. Jamestown was the first established colony in the New World.
The lesson of Jamestown is to go prepared . The men of Jamestown went for the wrong reason, built a fort in the wrong location, and didn't plan very well. This cost them their lives because within 6 months 34 of the 104 were still alive. At some point there will be a colony on the moon and I would hope that the people going would learn the lessons from 200 years ago in Jamestown.
The purpose of South Carolina is for colonists to move there for religious freedom.
