Native America, from the colonies of the British Empire
A group of adventure seeking aristocrats and puritans (the prominent religion at the time) intended on spreading the word of god to the savages of the new world crossed the ocean for the opportunity to occupy land of their own. Landowners being the new aristocracy for the new continent known as the American colonies. Looked at as a step below a pure English men feeling unworthy by the crown. Pushed on in the name of the British Empire for generations. Increasing this rift between the now Englishmen and American colonists. Denying them even, the full right to their heritage. Leading to the American Revolution and the formation of a new nation (men who did not want pay their taxes). The questionable equality of the new World with the Continuation of the occupation of the Native Americans and of British norms like slavery. Decided to claim their independence for individual freedoms by oppressing two different civilizations. With the growing nation pushing at more lands that are native and continued participation in the slave trade. “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness" As long as you are Christian and white, this would hold true for some. As the colonies went from small villages to larger towns high skilled craftsman and artisans would make their own variations from art, to architecture and handcrafted items such as furniture and homes, build hand made by the individual trades from essential to unwanted. From that it, formed new businesses and industries, as history would evolve. From the concept of elected officials of citizens, public newspaper, both used for the agendas of the crown and the colonies alike. The distance between England and the colonies allowed them to have some freedom. They build furniture sold goods etc. but in order to receive the necessary items to make these goods, the crown taxed them to even produce them. The American colonies now 13 states tried to keep their livelihood ago and still appeased the crown and the growing number of taxes and restrictions. In the colonies, everyday life was focused, on family the church, and the local community. Americans tended to be attached to the cultures of their home regions. These cultures were based on oral transmission and helped link Americans with a strong sense of community based on a medieval worldview. The community outweighed the needs of the individual. Though some commercial agriculture arose, the majority of rural North Americans were self-sufficient farmers, practicing a diversified agriculture and engaging in various crafts. In cities, artisans were organized according to the European craft system with periods of apprenticeship leading to a journeyman status and the chance to be an independent craftsman with apprentices and journeymen of his own. Unlike in Europe, land in America was abundant and cheap. But this scarcely led to a democratic society. Forced labor, whether of African slaves or white contracted servants, was considered acceptable. Both classes suffered great hardships. Although some servants eventually won freedom and prosperity,
and conflicts. One of the many conflicts concerned the domination of North America. While many European powers competed for control of North America, Britain gained the most territory through the four French and Indian wars, King William's War, Queen Anne's War, King George's War, and the French and Indian War. As these wars progressed, Britain achieved the most success and eventually became the most dominant power in North America. King William's War, which occurred from between…
Sociology 1101 North America Divided Why do people in the United States not know very much about either Canada or Mexico, countries with which we share long borders?

Statistics Canada describes “family” as a couple (married or common -law) with or without a child, or a lone parent of a minimum of one child. This contrasts with The Vanier Institute of the Family, defining it as a combination of more than two people who are bound together over time by mutual consent, birth, or adoption/placement. I agree with the latter of the two, where in my perspective a family consists of members who share nurturance, and the responsibilities of caring for each member of the…

The rattlesnake is a common predacious reptile that is found within North American ecosystems such as the Sonora, Chihuahuan, and Mojave Deserts. There are two distinctive groups of rattlesnakes that are found in these deserts.

Rattlesnakes are a distinctive species that can easily be identified based on their appearance. However, intraspecific recognition…
North America and Its Violent Culture Massacres occur around the world, but for it to occur and continue occurring in a first world nation like the US, which has already achieved a system of freedom and democracy, is bizarre. You cannot blame the US for every massacre that occurs, but could you blame the culture for some? Although I am not denying that one must be predisposed to commit such atrocities, North America’s sick culture of violence, weapons, and the enforcement of stereotypes is a…
in the short story was that people who are not indigenous to a specific area and do not know the heritage of the culture should not mess with things that they know nothing of. Oddly enough, people in other countries, and possibly even here in North America, share a very sacred relationship with nature. They feel there is a balance between their people and the land. So, for someone with no knowledge of the history and no understanding of the indigenous peoples beliefs, to essentially "leave a mark"…
The obesity rate in North American countries is among the highest in the world. Obesity is not only prevalent among adults in North America, but children as well. North Americans often neglect nutrition in favor of convenience, leading to poor food choices. This, combined with a sedentary lifestyle, leaves many North Americans overweight or obese. Because of this, obesity-related illnesses rank among the leading causes of death in North America. The obesity rate in North American countries is among…
