A group of investors called the East India Company. Jamestown was never meant to be a colony, but it was to make the men who went rich and the investors richer. The 104 men died in the first months because they built the fort in a swampy mosquito invested area with bad water in a Native American empire of 15,000. The Native Americans knew they wouldn't last too long and they didn't.
