1607 is a turning point in American history because it marks the beginning of England's colonization of the eastern seaboard in the North American continent. This initial settlement in Jamestown was small with a little over 100 English men. However, this would be the foundation for the 13 British colonies controlled until 1776.

The success of this colony resulted in the migration of thousands of British citizens to North America in hopes of a better life. Along with this, the initial settlement of Jamestown in 1607 would result in the beginning of the mercantilism system. This mercantilist system would result in enormous wealth and natural resources for the British Empire.

The turning point was the establishment of Jamestown, now in Virginia. This means that Europeans for the first time settled in the US, with the objective of staying - and they and their ancestors stayed to this day.

It is a major turning point because before it, the Americas were not inhabited by non-native Americans, and after this point, they were are continuing to be inhabited by Europeans and their ancestors.

In your opinion, what is the most effective method for changing society—voting, challenges in the
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

In my opinion, the most effective way to promote long-term social changes is through voting. This is so because, through elections, society expresses its will regarding the different problems and situations that are generated in its daily life, in a legitimate way.

In this way, each citizen votes for the political sector that most represents his interests and his ideology, a sector that in turn proposes changes for society, or the preservation of the prevailing situations at the time.

Thus, in the 1960s the exercise of the vote by African Americans after the Civil Rights Movement allowed the consolidation of favorable policies towards this social group in terms of equal access to rights.
