The three countries that colonized North America are Spain, France, and England. Spain took the lead after Columbus's voyages, and established itself in the Caribbean and Mesoamerica (Mexico and Central America). It had a very deliberate policy of conquest, with the goal of establishing colonies and extracting natural resources (especially gold and silver). It also sought to evangelize Native American peoples as a way of legitimazing its rule. France and England had a much more hands-off approach. The French established trade colonies in Canada and along the Mississippi, and became heavily involved in the fur trade. The English did not have an "official" policy, which left colonization to private initiatives; it also became a sort of release valve for social tensions, as in the case of the Puritans and other religious minorities that abandoned England for the New World.

Why the united states should have not feared communist subversion in the 1950s
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

One thing that the “red hunters” of the 50’s forgot about is that you can’t put an idea in prison. many of the teachers I had in high school grew up during the depression or lived through the depression. As a result I think they were more interested in social justice and had more liberal points of view than a lot of other people. As a result they may have undermined the American ethic that rich people are rich because they deserve to be rich, but they could not be considered “communists” by any stretch of the imagination. You also had the beatniks who agitated for a more just society but you could not call them communists either. So to go after card carrying members of the communist party and putting them in prison was an exercise in futility. Once their ideas were put out into the world, they influenced a great many people over and beyond those who called themselves communists.
