Jamestown's survival cannot be solely attributed to its location or initial planning, which were fraught with challenges such as poor water quality and hostile relations with Indigenous peoples. Additionally, the lack of effective leadership and the settlers’ initial focus on searching for gold rather than establishing sustainable agriculture contributed to early struggles. Instead, it was the later introduction of strong leadership, such as John Smith, and the cultivation of tobacco as a cash crop that ultimately ensured the colony's survival.
