Compare the various motivations for establishing the colonies. How well did the colonies achieve their original purpose or have to adapt to unexpected situations in the New World? Give specific examples from a few of the different colonies.

• For example, what motivated colonists to settle in Jamestown, Plymouth, Rhode Island or Philadelphia?
• How did the colonies interact differently with the American Indians?
• What impact did settlement patterns have on colonial growth and cohesion?
• Do you see any connection between the settlement patterns and later when the colonies rebelled against Britain?
