Around 1750, the British mainland American colonies had a population of approximately 1.5 million. In addition to settlers from Great Britain, a steady stream of German immigrants began to arrive in the late 1600s and reached its peak between 1749 and 1754, when more than 5,000 Germans arrived annually. Each year 3,500 black captives arrived from Africa or the Caribbean. Nearly 1 in 5 Americans, or 300,000 people, were enslaved. Poverty in Northern Ireland forced a massive flight of Scots-Irish to the colonies.
Answer:
<em>The Social Contract principle states that man was naturally free, and lived without rules or order, but in order to protect their rights and properties government was created.</em> Under the Social Contract theory, government is only valid with the consent of people. This principle inspired the Founding Fathers and can be found under the Articles of Confederation and the Declaration of Independence.
<u>Thomas Jefferson reflected the Social Contract theory into the Declaration of Independence by stating that Britain's Crown had not fulfilled their duties as Government of the Colonies and that this was cause of separation. </u>(<em>"Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed"</em>).
The Articles of Confederation reflected the Social Contract theory by <em>maintaining the sovereignty of states (Article I) </em>and creating a union where each state gave consent to the central government to use its power. <em>The idea of Article II that nine states had to agree so that the central government could act, is also a reflection of the social contract. </em>
