Colonial Era 1600-1776 • The Colonial Period in American History begins with the arrival of the Pilgrims at Plymouth, Massachusetts and ends with the Declaration of Independence.
Colonial Period 1607-1776 • English settlers had many reasons to come to the New World. • There were economic problems in England, and many wanted new opportunities. • The Spanish were among the first Europeans to explore the New World and the first to settle in what is now the United States.
The first permanent settlement in North America was the English colony at Jamestown, in 1607, in what is now Virginia. John Smith and company had come to stay. ThePilgrimsfollowed, in 1620, and set up a colony at Plymouth, in what is now Massachusetts. • As more and more people arrived in the New World, more and more disputes arose over territory. Many wars were fought in the 1600s and 1700s. Soon, the two countries with the largest presence were England and France.
ThePilgrimswere a religious group that separated from the Church of England, who in turn had separated from the Catholic Church. The pilgrims settled inPlymouth.
After a devastating first winter, a Native American,Squanto, acted as an intermediary between the Pilgrims and local Native American tribes, who in turn taught the pilgrims to plant, grow, and fish.
Squanto(1585?-1622), Native American of the Wampanoag tribe of what is now Massachusetts.
The Plymouth settlement celebrated the blessings of the first good harvest, holding a three day feast. It was the first Thanksgiving.

Anne Hutchinsonbelieved that a person could worship God without the help of a church, minister, or Bible. Another group that came to be known as the Quakers, held similar beliefs. Both groups sought sanctuary in Rhode Island after deplorable treatment by the Puritans.
King Philip, the son of Massasoit and chief of the Wampanoag. His Wampanoag name was Metacom, Metacomet, or Pometacom.
Europeans believe that land could be owned by individuals. Native Americans believed it belonged to everyone. Between 1675and1676, fierce fighting over these differences, known as King Philips War, was ultimately won by the English settlers.
Trade and Slavery • Trade is the voluntary exchange of goods, services, or both. Trade is also called commerce or transaction. • The best-known triangular trading system is the transatlantic slave trade, that operated during the 17th, 18th, and early 19th centuries, carrying slaves, cash crops, and manufactured goods between West Africa, Caribbean or American colonies, especially New England. • The use of African slave was fundamental in growing colonial cash crops, which were exported to Europe.
