  What factors led to the overwhelmingly high mortality rate among the early jamestown colonists

History
1 answer:
liraira [26]3 years ago
6 0
Lack of incentive - The lack of incentive among the colonists to complete important tasks led to the tasks not getting done. Many settlers were "gentlemanly" - Since most of the settlers considered themselves "gentlemanly", they considered the hard work of a settler "beneath" them and consequently did not get most of the basic things needed to survive done.
Expectations of finding gold - The expectations of finding gold (and mining it) led to people neglecting things such as gathering food, setting up shelter, etc. Location - The location that the settlers chose to settle in at was great for defending against naval incursions but terrible for living conditions. Bad Relations with Natives- The relations with the local Native Americans(which were all mistakenly grouped up into the Powhatan Indians) were not as good as they could be; if they had had a better relationship they could have traded for food and/or shelter which could have led to lower mortality rates

An important philosophical idea during the Enlightenment was that
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

An important philosophical idea during the Enlightenment was that  ordinary people should be able to pursue greater opportunities.

Explanation:

The Enlightenment was a period of great change in Europe and the United States in scientific practices and thinking that began in the late 17th century in the wake of the scientific revolution in the late Middle Ages. The Enlightenment lasted for about a century, and was characterized by the new ideas and discoveries that emerged during this period, which unveiled many things that had previously been incomprehensible to man. The Enlightenment was therefore a period of great human knowledge. This knowledge came about because man increasingly used scientific methods based on reason and realism rather than belief in supernatural forces or other babblings. The Christian Church was increasingly criticized after the new sciences and practices gave rise to a secular worldview.

Why might some Americans fear NAFTA?
Umnica [9.8K]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the third option. Some Americans fear NAFTA because they worry that American jobs could go to Mexico. NAFTA <span> is a three-country accord negotiated by the governments of Canada, Mexico, and the United States that entered into force in January 1994. </span>Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
