The Virginia Company of London was a joint-stock company chartered by King James I in 1606 to establish a colony in North America. Such a venture allowed the Crown to reap the benefits of colonization—natural resources, new markets for English goods, leverage against the Spanish—without bearing the costs.
Answer:
Yes. The Founding Fathers made the right choice in basing their new government on the beliefs of John Locke rather than Thomas Hobbes.
God actually created all men and women equal and free. This should be the basis of collective existence in any organized society. An absolute monarch is not necessary in such an organized society. The progress made in the US would not have been possible if the monarchical English government was continued. The creation of the US even helped the English government to do a rethink. The Queen has less power now than before the creation of the United States.
Explanation:
The beliefs of John Locke (1632 - 1704) are that God created all men and women free by nature and they are equal in the eyes of their creator. He fought against the contrary belief that people are made by God to be subject to a monarch.
On the contrary, Thomas Hobbes (1588 - 1679) believed that an absolute monarchy was "the only true and correct form of government." Hobbes in his Leviathan work held that "human beings are, at their core, selfish creatures," and therefore, needed a strong government for collective security, which the individuals cannot secure for themselves.
