George Washington was one of the greatest men in history he fought in the French and Indian War and then was appointed leader of the American Revolution and had a great impact on many other events.
The appropriate response is Valley Forge. It was not the best place to set up winter camp for the Continental Army, as it was not able to shield southern Pennsylvania at the time. This area additionally left the defenseless under-provided armed force in the striking separation of the British, who were very much provisioned and secured in Philadelphia.
Well, once the Americas were discovered and the colonist found that the soil was agreeable to grow different crops such as tobacco and cotton the colonists realized that they needed people to pick the crops. Originally indentured servants did the hard labor but then when they found that they could get labor by trading goods with African tribal leaders they resorted to importing Africans to the Americas as labor. The tribes in Africa were constantly fighting and whichever side won the losers became the slaves of the winning tribe. However, as Europeans brought valuable things to the continent of Africa such as weapons, salt, gold, and other things the leaders of the winning tribe would give their slaves to the Europeans. There were cases when Blacks captured other Blacks in Africa for the sole purpose of giving them to the European traders. Hopefully this helps. If you haven't see the movie La Amistad, it will explain in more detail what I have written. I learned a lot from that movie. I must warn you the first 5 to 10 minutes are a bit gory. I had a hard time watching that part.
