Option B is right that the to encourage people to settle in the colonies was the purpose of the Headright system.
Began in 1618 at Jamestown in Virginia, the Headright system was a method of granting the land legally. This system was created to attract immigrants and it was an attempt to solve scarcity of labor in Virginia, caused by the appearance of the tobacco economy. The Headrights were awarded to anyone who would agree to pay the shipping costs of the labor or slave. accordingly, colonists who were living in Virginia were given with two Headrights, and the migrated Colonists were awarded one Headright and the individuals received one Headright every time they paid for the journey of another individual. Plantation owners benefited from the Headright system when they met for the transportation of imported slaves. The increasing money amount required to bring bound slaves to the colonies and this contributed to the shift towards slavery in the colonies.
Answer:
I believe that under English Rule Slavery was almost slightly more fair than the way the Dutch used their rule/power
Explanation:
The Dutch West India Company imported 11 African slaves to New Amsterdam in 1626, with the first slave auction being held in New Amsterdam in 1655.
Slavery in Great Britain existed and was recognized from before the Roman occupation until the 12th century, when chattel slavery disappeared, at least for a time, after the Norman Conquest. Former slaves merged into the larger body of serfs in Britain and no longer were recognized separately in law or custom.
Answer:
Battled fiercely for control of the land
Answer:
- to celebrate important victories
- to inspire the troops to go into battle
- to encourage civilians to sign up and fight
- to keep up the spirits of people back home
Explanation:
Your comment is right so let me expand on it if you don't mind.
Songs written and sung during a war are usually done to lift spirts to continue the war efforts. These songs will therefore celebrate important victories and keep up the spirits of those back home. The songs will contain patriotic overtones that will inspire troops to go into battle and encourage civilians to sign up for war.
It is doubtful that such songs will try to persuade foreign countries to get involved for sovereignty reasons and very unlikely that they will describe major military tactics so those do not fall into the hands of the enemy.
