The indentured servitude system in Jamestown arose out of a need for more labor to care for the vast lands available to settlers. The land was untouched and needed to be cleared, homes built, and farms created. This type labor required strong men. The Virginia commissioned Englishmen to come Virginia with their passage paid and would then work off the passage as a servant. Once servitude was served, the man would often receive a land parcel for themselves to then grow in the new colony. For England, this meant economic relief as a depression had put many men out of work and needing a place to go they were encouraged to become indentured servants. Eventually prisoners in overcrowded English prisons would also be offered the same deal.

In what ways did the New Deal both provide direct relief and create new jobs? Which programs served each of these goals?
quester [9]

The New Deal was a series of measures and projects enacted during the Great Depression (The worst economic downturn of America) that aimed to restore public confidence in the banking system, to provide relief to those most in need (like the elderly and the poor), to employ millions of Americans, to reform infrastructure, to regulate the economy and others.

The New Deal both provided direct relief and created new jobs through the establishment of government agencies, some of them were: 1) the Civilian Conservation Corps (1933) that gave millions of young men employment on environmental projects that, among others, included the plantation of trees and construction of trails and shelters for those homeless; 2) the Works Progress Administration (1935) that employed mostly unskilled men to carry out public works projects, such as the construction of public buildings and roads that benefited the whole society; 3) and the Tennessee Valley Authority (1933) that provided jobs to people and brought electricity to the rural Tennessee River Valley, operated the hydroelectric Wilson Dam, improved the navigability of the Tennessee River and developed the agriculture, commerce and industry in the region.

How was japan during the samurai period different?
Trava [24]
Back then samurais were needed for protection and/or war, the imperial palace would have them serve as guards, and some Lords or higher ups would have them go into battle, but now Higher ups and the emperor’s have highly trained body guards so there is no need for samurais.
