We have made it to North America. It is very different from Europe. The natives look different than anyone we have ever seen. Their skin is much darker than ours, they wear strange clothing and their bows and arrows seem worthless next to our guns. We have not found any gold since we have arrived. We have decided we will stay a while and plant tobacco. We also found the people of the Roanoke colony. They never vanished, they just wanted to stay in this new land.
Almost to the Americas
I am part of the expedition to the Americas. Our expedition is led by the English explorer John Smith. We were sent to establish another English colony. We are all worried about this journey. We don't want to disappear like the Roanoke colony sent before us. We came here on a search for gold and silver. I'm hoping we do not run into the natives while we are here! We have been instructed to find a river route to the Pacific Ocean to trade with Asia. I will be happy when we finally reach land because I have grown tired of the sea.
Jamestown colony
It has been a while since we arrived here in North America. Since then we have established a new town. We named it Jamestown. Although many of the original explorers have died, we are still a strong town. It is hard to believe that it has been so long ago that we found this unusual place. We never did find the river that led to Asia, or the gold. We have grown tobacco instead. I have finally gotten more comfortable with the scenery and natives. I am happy that the colony of Jamestown did not disappear trying to get to America.
First of he died stabbed. One of his "friends" Brutus helped stab him I believe he was stabbed 32 or 36 times. His last words were to Brutus and they were"u too? His death lead to an empire because his nehpew was next in reign. Augustus made the empire.
