Jamestown colonists founded the first plantations in a bid to make the colony more financially viable. Pocahantas (the real one) was also kidnapped by the English.
The main ways to make money in the 1700 New England colonies was to build ships, whaling, fishing, and blacksmith.
In the Jamestown colony, the establishment of the House of Burgesses in 1619 marked the first representative government in America, allowing colonists to elect representatives to make laws and govern on their behalf. Similarly, in Plymouth, the Mayflower Compact of 1620 served as an early form of self-governance, where the Pilgrims agreed to create a government that would represent their collective interests and abide by majority rule. Both examples illustrate the colonists' desire for a voice in their governance and laid the groundwork for future democratic principles in America.
