Naddik [55]3 years ago

Powhatan Indians were mostly from East Virginia. They are indigenous Algonquian people. They speak Virginian Algonquian language. They are the descendants of Powhatans Confederacy.  Powhatan is referred as the leader or the head of the tribe. Many thousands of Powhatans have inhabited East Virginia. At that time, the British settlers were emigrating from Great Britain and they settled in Jamestown.

Powhatan maintained smooth relationships with the English men, though there were some incidents of internal conflict due to cultural differences arose but they were resolved when Powhatan gave their women in nuptial bond to English men.

Initially Powhatan were very compassionate but this was taken advantage and the English men started to demand Food constantly and this tested the patience of Powhatan chief who ordered to stop helping the English men.  

Powhatan’ brother who was young and energetic started a brutal attack and killed many hundreds of English Settlers, this annoyed Englishmen and they were repulsive in waging a brutal war. Gradually, the Englishmen dominated in Jamestown.

Where did the colonists look for ideas about good forms of government?
Deffense [45]

Answer:

They looked at examples in history and in the writings of European political philosophers during the Enlightenment.

Explanation:

The American Revolution meant for the young American society a series of great intellectual and social changes, such as the new republican ideals that, debated by the "founding fathers" (politicians and intellectuals illustrated as Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams or Thomas Paine) were assimilated by the population. The main political ideas for the formation of the new government came from the European philosophers of the Enlightenment like Locke, Voltaire, and Montesquieu, that inspired the American colonist to create a new democracy. These ideals emphasized political concepts such as division of powers, freedom of property, individual rights, freedom of market, federalism, equality, and anti-monarchy. Moreover, these ideas were rooted in historical examples like the ancient Greek democracy and the Roman Republic, which were taken into account by the American founding fathers as historical and cultural inspiration.
