Explorers wanted to explore the new world during the 15-17 centuries. One of those reasons was to find gold and riches there was a rumor if you crossed the ocean you would get rich. Another reason was to find heaven. People said that if you crossed the sea you would find a gateway to heaven. People also wanted to colonize and take the land they found for their country. This is why many explorers wanted to find new land.

The Europeans started to explore the word but why? The Europeans started to explore the word for many things like pricey gold to become rich. There are also many riches in China like smooth silk or flavorful spices. The Europeans explore for fresh new land. The world is much more different now and others now still explore.

The Europeans explored the world because they wanted to find kathay {heaven} and treasures such as gold, silver, silks, food, and much more. Most Explorers used boats to find new land and countries.

The reason why Europeans decided to explore the world in the 15th-17th Centuries is because at that time most of the world was poor and wanted to get gold. Also to get more land and show their king and queens that they found this new land can I get gold. The people wanted silk and gunpowder from Asia and sailing is easier than walking. The Europeans are one of the most important people back then for exploring our world.

Europeans explored the world in the 15th to 17th centuries because. They wanted to find valuable things like gold and silk and trade for money from the king and queens. Also they wanted to find new land and quicker ways to get to land. Lastly they wanted to find Heaven on earth. In the end they all found something even if it was good or bad like disease or gold

The Europeans explored all of the world and this will tell you why.As you know the Europeans were very poor back then instead of the queen and king so they had to find a way to get very rich and be the most powerful country in the world. After knowing what Columbus did they wanted to add from that and explore more. Another reason why they wanted to explore was because they wanted gold but little did they know that if they wanted gold they had to fight for it.

The Europeans explored the world in the 15th and 17th centuries on a search of riches. One example of the riches they were looking for is spices. Another example is gold. They were also on a search of gun powder, and sometimes fur. These things would help them become very wealthy.

Who is more to blame? Even though the war was very confusing we have to blame the English for making them drunk and cheated them and then had no hope left to have and keep any land. Another grievance was English cattle and horses still increased and kept spoiling their corn. That's what started the King Philip war. 11/20/2020 05:52:09 am
Both sides were intriguing but one stood out. The Indians opinion. It made more scene and had more evidence. First it said that the English was stealing land. Than they said that the English were ruining there crops. Last they said they were making them drunk. In conclusion I agree with the Indianans. 11/20/2020 07:10:07 am
The English and Europeans explored the New World for what? Gold, god, glory, and goods, of course. But why did they want those things? They wanted power! If they could get these things, they could "prove" to God that they are worthy, so they will be taken to Cathay (Heaven) after death. They want gold and goods, like spices, sugar, kinds of cloth, etc., to be rich. If they were rich, they'd have power. If they had power, they'd have glory. Glory made them feel good. Most humans want these things, so is what they did bad, or is it the way they handled it?

I believe that the indians are right and the the English are wrong. One reason is they took land from the indians that was probably hard to get. Another reason is they literally made the indians drunk. And finally they cheated them. That's why I think the English are to blame.

Who is more to blame? I think that the English are cruel people. They say there friends and then turn their backs and make them drunk just to steal their land. They lost almost all of there land and hope. The English out-numbered the Indians 10 to 1 so there is nothing they could have done. My conclusion is that the English need to be stopped and thats what started the King Philip´s War.

I think it helped the idea of colonial independence from England because people didn't have to go to a specific church, do they thought they had more freedom to separate from England.

I think the Americas would be different if the French and Indian war did not happen. It would be different by part of the land is French and part of it is British. It could also be that the French and the British combined. I think the Americas would be different if the French and Indian war did not happen

What would've happened if the French and Indian war hadn't happened? America probably wouldn't have become a country, because the 13 colonies wouldn't have become united. Also, there would be many, many more wars fighting over ownership of America. That was what I think would have happened if the French and Indian war never existed.

Which seed is most important? All of them were had some part in starting the American Revolution, but one started it. The French and Indian War left England Broke. Because of that, they taxed the colonists. They were pretty much hands off until the war. That is why I think the French and Indian war was the most important seed.

The most inportant revalotion is French and indian because it stared the whole thing like the procation of 1763 on that stared the stamp act and more. That is why it is the most inportant.

I think there was one seed that took it all. That was the Boston Tea Party. Because that was the first time the Sons of Liberty revolted and costed Britain lots. This showed how the colonists were feeling in a bigger way. This is what the most important seed is.

What seed was the most important? I think the seed that is the most important was the First Continental Congress. I think it is the most important because it unified the colonies. It also is important because after the colonies unified they came together to rebel against the British. I that is why I think the First Continental Congress is the most important.

There were many important seeds of revolution, but if I had to choose, I think the Intolerable Acts of 1774 were the most important because of these reasons. First, it closed the port Boston Harbor, which made most of the colonists lose their jobs because a lot of people's jobs in Boston were based around the sea. Second, the Quartering Acts returned, putting British soldiers in colonists homes which was like putting oil and water together. Finally, the Massachusetts governor Thomas Hutchinson was replaced by General Thomas Gage, meaning Massachusetts, and specifically Boston, was under direct rule of the British crown culminating the repealing of the Massachusetts Charter. Honestly, that was only one of the seeds of revolution that stood out, but there is many others.

There were so many people who helped us win the American Revolution. For example, Baron von Steuben. He was a Prussian man who joined the American cause at Valley Forge and helped train the soldiers into a better army. Also, there was Thomas Paine. He wrote the book Common Sense. It was a book that persuaded a lot of people to the Patriot side. Finally, there was Thomas Jefferson. He wrote the Declaration of Independence claiming independence from Great Britain, and also helped France join the cause. These were only some, of the many, many people who helped us win the Revolutionary War.

The Revolutionary War was for our freedom. Without these people lets just say we wont have the same freedoms and rights as we do today. Someone named Francis Manon helped us with sneak attacks, and killing lobster backs. Manon helped us with his ghost- like attacking. Another Freedom maker was Gen. Greene he helped us with thinking and knowing what to do for every step that the British do. Without his prodgeous thinking, we wouldnt be able to fight like we did. Last but not least was Baron Von Steuben, he helped us with healing in Valley Forge and strengthen us up. Without his establishing work we couldn't rise up again and show our all to finish this war. Those outrageous people helped and guided us to freedom we have today.

Three people who helped the patriots win the war were Baron Von Steuben, Benedict Arnold, and Ethan Allen. Steuben helped train the soldiers at Valley Forge and they came out tougher and stronger. Arnold helped us win at Saratoga by leading the army into battle, capturing almost half of the British army. Allen helped us win Ticonderoga by suggesting to do a surprise attack in the middle of the night, when the British weren't prepared. Winning this war required the help of a lot of different people.
