Jamestown, Virginia, experienced the terrible starving time in the 1609 until next year, running out of food and becoming ridden with diseases, that the population fell from more than 100 to only 60. According to Smith, many of the settlers were from aristocratic backgrounds and so were not inclined to work. Then he enforced the rule “that he that will not work shall not eat”  and enforced it with punishments or banishment from the fort. With the rule and some luck, Smith succeeded in making the colony self-sufficient.

The Industrial Age in all of the the United States is MOST associated with which era? A) early-1800s B) early-1900s C) late-1700
VLD [36.1K]

The industrial Age in all of the United States is most associated with <u>D) late-1800s</u>, because although the industrial revolution in the U.S.A began at the end of the 18th century <em>(late 1700s)</em> thanks to that Samuel Slater <em>(known as the father of the industrial revolution in the U.S.A) </em>brought new manufacturing technologies from England to the United States and founded the first American cotton mill in Massachusetts in 1787, which helped to spread all the new manufacturing knowledge in the country and it caused a progressive industrial expansion, <u>nevertheless, in the late 1800s the industrial revolution expanded through all the United States due to the appearance and extension of railways and technological developments such as electricity and motors, among others.</u>

So, for that reason, the Industrial Age in <u>all of the United States</u> is MOST associated with <u>late-1800s.</u>
