Jonathan Edwards significantly influenced Colonial America through his powerful preaching and revivalist efforts during the First Great Awakening in the 1730s and 1740s. His sermons, particularly "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God," emphasized personal piety and emotional engagement with faith, fostering a sense of urgency about salvation and morality. This movement encouraged a more individualistic approach to religion, challenging established churches and contributing to the rise of various Protestant denominations. Edwards' theological insights also laid foundational ideas for American evangelicalism and influenced the nation's religious landscape.
Colonial America was not filled with gold seekers. The geography of the East Coast does not have gold. The men of Jamestown came to seek gold for their investors, but found tobacco instead to be the item that saved them. It won't be until the 1849 that gold will make an impact on the US and by that time colonial America was long past. The discovery of gold in California did make people seek gold and created a climate that allowed California to be admitted to the Union in 1850.
The biggest impact is language. Brazil speaks Portuguese. Most of the rest of Latin America speak Spanish. The other impact is religion. Most of Latin America are Roman Catholic.

The Spanish Armada, defeated in 1588, had a significant impact on colonial dynamics in America. Its failure marked the decline of Spanish naval dominance, allowing other European powers, particularly England and France, to expand their influence in the Americas. This shift facilitated increased exploration, colonization, and competition for resources, leading to a more diverse colonial landscape. Additionally, it weakened Spain's ability to defend its territories and maintain control over its vast empire.
Great Awakening
The social impact that the Great awakening had in 18th century colonial America was that it opened the doors of some white churches. The churches were now opened to African Americas and Indians.
An example of colonial literature written as part of the Great Awakening is "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" by Jonathan Edwards. This sermon, delivered in 1741 during the peak of the Great Awakening, emphasized the concept of God's wrath and the need for repentance, aiming to awaken listeners to the fragility of human life and the consequences of sin. Edwards' writing style, characterized by vivid imagery and intense emotional appeal, made a significant impact on the religious landscape of the time.
Africa of course, as it is the least developed region in the world.

The slavery impact on the development of colonial America was great, slaves were brought to the colonized america to work. Some slaves were in an area that abolished slavery so they were kind of like citizens in north but in the south they were treated like a working horse. Also slaves helped and maintained the cotton and tobacco fields, helping colonies create income.
Because it did.
