Why did paying of the Plymouth colony's debt help the colony succeed?

History
1 answer:
Luba_88 [7]4 years ago
3 0

<u><em>The fur trade industry was the colony’s economic salvation</em></u>. For the first few years that the colony existed, the colonists struggled to make enough money to pay the investors back. In fact, they had to ask for more money just to keep the colony running and by the mid to late 1620s, they were deeply in debt to the investors.

<u>To help pay down the debt they still owed</u>, the colonists established a beaver fur trading base in Kennebec, Maine by 1625.  

<u>This fur trading business was very successful for the colonists and quickly became an essential part of their economy</u>. Their success in this trade continued well into the 1630s and 1640s..

What is the domain influence of Medusa
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Medusa, one of the three Gorgons, daughter of Phorcys and Ceto. She was the only one of the Gorgons who was subject to mortality. She is celebrated for her personal charms and the beauty of her locks. Neptune became enamoured of her, and obtained her favours in the temple of Minerva. This violation of the sanctity of the temple provoked Minerva, and she changed the beautiful locks of Medusa, which had inspired Neptune’s love to serpents. According to Apollodorus, Medusa and her sisters came into the world with snakes on their heads, instead of hair, with yellow wings and brazen hands. Their bodies were also covered with impenetrable scales, and their very looks had the power of killing or turning to stones. Perseus rendered his name immortal by his conquest of Medusa. He cut off her head, and the blood that dropped from the wound produced the innumerable serpents that infest Africa. The conqueror placed Medusa's head on the shield of Minerva, which he had used in his expedition. The head still retained the same petrifying power as before, as it was fatally known in the court of Cepheus. Some suppose that the Gorgons were a nation of women, whom Perseus conquered.
