The correct answer is A) Most settlers searched for gold rather than planting crops.

The Jamestown settlement nearly failed because most settlers searched for gold rather than planting crops.

Sometimes people deviate their focus to other things that are not the priority. That is what happened in the first colony of England in the Americas: Jamestown. The colony at Jamestown nearly failed because of these two actions of the colonists: hunted for silver and gold and they also searched for the fabled Northwest Passage.

The Jamestown Colony was founded in 1607 and was the first English colony in North America. These European people arrived on May 14, 1607, and established close to the James River. These people came to America because they aspire to be rich or richer and were looking for raw materials such as gold. But permanent conflicts with the Native American Indians of the region, hunger, diseases, hunted for silver and gold, and the search for the fabled Northwest Passage, almost made the colony fail and disappear.

satela [25.4K]

New England colonists felt their win over the allied Native American tribes was a sign from God that they were destined to settle and be prosperous in the Americas. New England settlers used the war as a reason to retaliate against Native Americans and to treat them poorly. The war proved to colonists that the Indians were violent and lacking the ability to be civilized.

King Philip's War was a war against the New England colonists. This war brought together a few tribes with the Wampanoag tribe leading the charge. The tribes were tired of being connected to the English and this was their final attempt to get rid of the English settlers. Some other tribes joined the English in the battles and the English settlers were victorious in the end. Those on the losing side either fled for protection or were enslaved by the colonists. Those remaining from the enemy side were treated poorly and with the leader King Philip being beheaded for his part in the war.
