Through this week’s assigned reading and media, you have seen the colonies become established after a time of instability including Bacon’s Rebellion and the Salem Witch trials. However, by the beginning of the 18th Century, the colonies were experiencing opportunities for economic and intellectual growth. What was the “industrious revolution,” how did it shape the colonial economy, and what other factors shaped the development of the colonial economy? Explain your answer with specific examples from your assigned reading and media.
Chapter 4-5 need to be used for the assigned reading and bibliography. 

In an essay of 650-1000 words, 2-3 pages, double-spaced, 11-12point Times New Roman
or similar font and one inch margins, answer one of the following questions using only the
readings, lecture notes, and documentaries assigned to you to this point of the quarter.
American Yawp can inform your historization, like your class notes, but not constitute one of the readings. You must use at least 3 of the readings and include references to two of the
documentaries.
1. The Other. From the time of the arrival of the Europeans to the North American continent
through the beginning of the 18th century colonization brought together people of
disparate backgrounds. The day to say of life in the colonies was marked by race, class,
and gender. Using only the readings assigned in this class describe the experience of
these “others” in the early colonial period.
How did non-elite actors fare in the evolution of the British and/or French colonies from
the 1530s through 1700?
2. Geopolitics. For the course of the semester, we have noted how geopolitics have
informed the colonial process. England, France, and Spain were engaged in a rivalry for
dominance on the European continent that extended into the Americas. Specifically, for
us, these events greatly informed the formation of the 13 British colonies in North
America and influenced their development to 1700.
How did geopolitics come to inform the colonial project from the period of exploration
through 1700
