I'm pretty sure that would be true because of his crisis theory.
Answer:
Virginia - Economic reasons
Explanation:
Considering the available options, the colony that matches correctly with the reason it was founded is "Virginia - Economic reasons."
Virginia was founded in 1607 under the leadership of John Smith while working for the London Company. The primary reason behind the founding was to ensure the joint-stock-owned Virginia Company of London makes profits.
Maryland - which was founded in 1633 by George and Cecil Calvert, was established for religious reason, specifically the Catholic Church
Pennsylvania - was founded in 1681by William Penn, and it was based for religious purpose, specifically for the Quakers
Georgia - was founded in 1732 by James Oglethorpe, and it was initially for economic reasons, mainly to settle debts.
Code Noir was set by the French to help them regulate slavery and punishment. The Code required people that were colonized to provide food every week to the French. However, in Haiti, it did not function well as the people could only provide water and potatoes to the French. Also, the fact that the average lifespan of the "slaves" in Haiti was just 7 years didn't help the cause.
It's important that we know where and how we came to be. For example we wouldn't really understand why you're a certain religion if we didn't know who settled the land and what happened. Not only that, but also a lot of things happened back then, a civil war, WWI and WWII, the Cold war, war of 1812, that made things what it is present day. Also history makes sure that we can honor people for freedom, such as Abe Lincoln who freed slaves. The point I'm making here is that history is a way to remember important events that have effected many things and many places and without keeping track of history (for example if we didn't keep track of the Constitution) we wouldn't have the somewhat peaceful society of today.
