Answer:

The Spanish - they colonized a larger territory than the French or the British, so they met a larger variety of geographical features, from the tall mountains of the Andes, to the Amazon Rainforest, to the deserts of Northern Mexico. The Spanish exploited the land where they went, obtaining very large amounts of gold and silver. They also, unlike the British or the French, mixed en masse with the Native Populations.

The French - they colonized some Caribbean Islands, Quebec, and some parts of the Central United States. In the Caribbean, the French established cash crop plantations, while in North America, colonization was very sparse, with only a few colonists dedicated mostly to either subsistance farming, or fur trading.

The British - In New England, mostly English Puritans settled, where they formed very close community under strict religious principles.

In the Middle Colonies, more open-minded colonies were founded, where several religions lived together.

In the South, the British formed plantation colonies much like the Caribbean colonies: cash crops were planted with the help of enslaved African Americans.

Answer:

I would pick lion

Explanation:

I would have chosen lion as our nation's symbol. Lion can represent multitude of things such as strength, justice, fearlessness, and power! All of these were part of the US when colonies first united and fought against british. Lion also resembles a great military might and US has this even to this day and had this during old times as well as evident by our win against the notorious british regime.

Having a lioness to be part of country's symbol also resembles being caretakers as a great mother providing protection. US has mostly been a safe refuge for people seeking the protection of its warmth and security. The colonists came to US mainland (although not orginally called US) for better life thus lioness or lion are great symbols.
