The Early Chesapeake

__ The English Arrive __ __First Attempts__ __Founding of Jamestown__ __Reorganization__ __Tobacco__ __Expansion__ __Exchanges of Agricultural Technology__ __Maryland and the Calvert__ __Turbulent Virginia__ __Bacon's Rebellion__ Significance of Bacon's Rebellion:
 * 1)  The first permanent English settlements were mostly business enterprises
 *  Small, fragile and unprepared for life in the New World
 * 1)  They isolate themselves and don’t interact with the Indians
 *  They came to America to rebuild England, not wanting a culture change
 * 1)  The Americas were already populated and the English didn’t expect this many people or this to cause a problem
 *  Tribes, colonists, traders from Spain, France, and the Netherlands, immigrants from both Europe and Africa, and explorers are all already there
 * 1)  European colonies fought with but also relied on the Native American tribes for help
 *  Eventually the English dispel these Indians so that they can take over the land fully
 * 1)  James I issued charters in 1606 to both the London and Plymouth Companies
 *  Money, as always is an issue and the Companies struggle to get funding
 * 1)  Plymouth company
 *  They make an early and unsuccessful attempt to colonize at Sagadahoc off of the coast of Maine.
 *  They abandoned all attempts to establish colonies after the first one fails
 * 1)  The London Company
 *  Only a few months after receiving their charter, they launch an expedition
 * 1)  3 boats : Godspeed, Discovery and Susan Constant with 144 men head out
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Only 104 men arrive in Chesapeake Bay in the Spring of 16 __07__
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> They proceed up a river they name the "James" and settle on a peninsula extending from the river's northern bank
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> They chose this land believing it will provide them with security, so they don’t wind up like the Roanoke who were believed to have been killed by the Indians
 * 3) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Many problems arise with this location:
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The area is low and swampy, and hot in humid in the summer making it an ideal breeding ground for Malaria. The English have no immunity or defense to Malaria and kills and/or renders most of their men useless
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The thick woods are hard to cultivate and most of the men are not manual labor enthusiasts
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The territory is within those of the Indians and are controlled by the Imperial Chief Powhatan
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The promoters wanted their investments paid back quickly, and so the men wasted their time looking for Gold to make a profit with
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> They wrongly assume that the Indians will provide them with food, and don’t focus on agriculture enough and wind up starving themselves.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> No women are brought on this expedition, and the men have a hard time settling in and viewing Jamestown as a home and society
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The lack of food leads to a depleted immune system which made them easy targets for malaria, and thus creating a vicious cycle.
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> By January 1608- when ships come with more supplies and men- only 38 of the original men are alive
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Captain John Smith
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> It is because of the 27 year old world famous traveler, that the colony made it.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Well published narratives of his world travels made him very famous
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Leadership among the colony was divided between several members of a council that didn’t get along.
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> In fall of 1608 Smith got full control of the council
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> He organized food raids (the Indians being the victims) and during the colonies 2nd winter, only 12 men died out of 200
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> By the summer of 1608- Smith left the council and went back to England to receive treatment for a serious burn- the colony was showing promise of survival.
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The London Company is now calling itself the Virginia Company
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> 1609 new charter is obtained increasing its power over colony and land to which it had title
 * 3) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Company makes money by:
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> selling stock to people who would stay in England
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> giving stocks to people who agreed to move to the colony and pay their own expenses
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> free passage to people who were willing to serve the company for 7 years
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Spring of 1609
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Nine vessels, 600 people, men women and children
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> One ship is lost at sea in a hurricane
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Another is stuck on a Bermuda Island for months
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The others were weakened by their journey
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Many people succumbed to fevers before winter
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The winter of 1609-1610 is also called the "Starving Time"
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The Local Indians who were pissed from the raids, killed their livestock and barricaded the colonists in
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> People were forced to eat rats, pets, snakes, and even dead bodies to stay alive
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> In May when the Bermuda Triangle ship finally made it- they found only 6o out of previous 500 people alive
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> New arrivals take survivors and head home
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> On the way down the James they meet a fleet bringing supplies and the colonies first governor: Lord De La Warr
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> They agree to turn around and head back
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Shortly after- many relief ships with hundreds of colonists began to arrive and resume the effort to turn Jamestown into a profit
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> De La Warr
 * 3) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> He and his successors (Sir Thomas Dale and Sir Thomas Gates) imposed harsh tactics
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Settlers' were organized into work gangs and people were sentenced to cruel forms of punishments
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Settlers often skipped work because it provided no benefits to them- the system wasn’t working
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Governor Dale realized people world work better if they had personal incentives. He permitted private ownership and cultivation of land.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Landowners could repay the company through part time work and contributions of grain to its storehouses.
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> New settlements were established along the river due to the result of order and discipline, increased military assaults on the Indians --> security, and discovery of a marketable crop: tobacco
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Spanish Colonies had been cultivating tobacco, and the English had a high demand for it
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Made English worry that their gold was being drained and helping the Spanish
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> In 1612, Jamestown Planter, John Rolfe began to experiment. He found that the tobacco grew crops of high quality and was a huge money maker.
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The tobacco economy led to a transformation in Chesapeake Society.
 * 3) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Territorial expansion and the high demand for more land and new land became an extreme pressure. Tobacco rendered the soil useless after a few years and needed large amounts of space
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Despite the tobacco efforts, in 1616 there were no profits, only debts
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> 1618: a final launch campaign to attract people was launched.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Headrights (fifty acres of land) were offered to new settlers
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> 2 Headrights were given to already existing settlers
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Each new settler received one
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> This encouraged families to come because more people= more land
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Anyone who paid for the journey of someone received an additional Headrights per person
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> In return, people paid the company a shilling a year per Headrights
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The company began importing skilled craftsmen
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> In 1619 a ship of 100 English woman available for purchase to marry were brought over \
 * 3) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The campaign promised people the full rights of Englishmen, ending the strict and communal rule that had developed over the years
 * 4) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> July 30th, 1619 delegates from various communities met as the House of Burgesses in the Church. It was the first meeting of elected legislatures, a representative assembly, within what was to become the USA.
 * 5) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> In 1619 a ship of 20+ black people (not necessarily slaves) were brought over
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> At this time, European servants were preferred, but in the 1670s these became scarce and expensive
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> This is the first step towards the enslavement of Africans in America
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The expansion of the colony is only due to the suppression of the Indians
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Pocahontas (Powhatan's daughter) was kidnapped and when Powhatan refused to back down and ransomed her, she left to England with Rolfe and encouraged attempts to civilize the Indians.
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Powhatan ceases attacks once he realizes that he is out numbered
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> His brother Opechancanough decides to resume defending tribal lands and on a March morning of 1622, the tribesman killed 347 men and women.
 * 3) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The English fought back and it wasn’t until O tried another uprising in 1644 did they finally back down.
 * 4) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The Indian uprisings led to bankruptcy and in 1624 James I revoked the charter and the colony came under control of the crown.
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The English believed that their own civilization was greatly superior to the Indians, and so they acted with hostility towards them.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> They were expecting the advanced civilizations the Spanish had found with the Mayans and Aztecs
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The survival of Jamestown, was in the end, due to the agricultural technologies developed by Indians
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> They had become very skilled at growing food for large amounts of people
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The English adopted some of the Indians methods and quickly recognized the importance and value of corn.
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Corn was much easier to cultivate and produced much larger quantities at a time than any of the other grains the Europeans knew
 * 3) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Corn was also worth their while because it could make sugar and didn’t spoil as easily as other grains.
 * 4) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The English also learned that growing beans alongside corn would enrich the soil.
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> This new colony was the dream of George Calvert, the first Lord of Baltimore
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> He envisioned this land to be a great speculative venture in real estate and as a retreat for the English Catholics who were feeling oppressed by the Anglican establishment
 * 3) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> His son, Cecilius- the second lord of Baltimore- took over and received an amazing charter because he was granted large amounts of land and sovereign power
 * 4) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> He named his brother, Calvert, governor.
 * 5) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> In March 1634- two ships the Ark and Dove with 200/300 passengers came to the Pontiac River where they settled and established the village of St. Mary's
 * 6) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> There the Indians were friendly, they befriended them and gave them temporary shelter, sold them land, and supplied them with corn.
 * 7) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The new settlers, unlike the ones in Virginia suffered from no assaults, plagues or starving time.
 * 8) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> This new colony needed to attract many new settlers meaning they had to attract Protestants too, and had to realize that English Catholics would always be a minority in the colony and adopted a policy of religious toleration
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> In order to appease the people- Calvert appointed a Protestant as governor in 1648
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Religious tensions were everywhere
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> From the Jesuits, Catholic minority, protestant majority and the crusading Puritans- people were frightening each other and the tension was mounting.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> At one point the protestants repealed the toleration act and banned Catholics from voting.
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> These tensions led to a civil war
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> In 1640- Maryland was experiencing a labor shortage and decided to adopt a Headrights system. A man could receive 2 for himself, 2 for his wife and 1 for each child.
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> One of the greatest problems faced in the settling of the new world was the policy towards the natives.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> As settlements moved West and farther into Indian lands, border conflicts grew frequent
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Sir William Berkeley
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Arrived in Virginia in 1642 appointed as governor by King Charles I
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> He was well liked, his accomplishments made him so
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> He sent explorers across the Blue Ridge mountains to open the western interior of Virginia.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> He led the force that put down the Indian Uprising of 1644
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> He made an agreement with the tribes that a line would be drawn and white settlement west of the line wouldn’t be allowed
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The attempt to respect the Indian border agreement was becoming a problem because the population was multiplying.
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Servants who had completed their time or run away were pushing westward into Indian territory and by 1652 three colonies were established in land that wasn’t theirs
 * 3) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Berkeley had gained too much power, elections were now limited to only land owners and rarely occurred. The same people stayed in office year after year, and only two representatives were given to colonies regardless of size. Many of the smaller colonies didn’t even receive representation.
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Nathaniel Bacon was a wealthy, young graduate of Cambridge who arrived in Virginia in 1673. He established himself as a member of the back country gentry through money
 * 2) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Western landowners and the tidewater region disagreed on things
 * 3) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> White settlers in Virginia didn’t like the governments attempt to hold the line and keep the Indians happy
 * 4) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> They believed it was because the aristocracy wanted to hold its dominance and keep the white population in the West at bay.
 * 5) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Bacon resented Berkeley for his exclusion from the exclusive inner circle of governors called the Green Spring group and for Berkeley's refusal to allow him a piece of the Indian Fur Trade Company.
 * 6) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> In 1675, some Doeg Indians killed a white servant. Small bands of local whites by attacking the small Doeg Indian tribe and the powerful Susquehannock which led to the Indians retaliating with more raids on plantations and killing more white servants.
 * 7) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Unsatisfied with Berkeley's lack of response to the uprising, Bacon defies him and fights back against the Indians. Berkeley then removes him from the governor council and makes him and his men rebels
 * 8) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> It was then that what had started as an unauthorized assault but instead led to a rebellion between the colonial government : Bacon's Rebellion
 * 9) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> Twice Bacon led his army to Jamestown. The first time he received a pardon from the governor but the second time he burnt the city down and drove the governor into exile for his failure to cooperate
 * 10) <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> The Indians realized they cant win and sign a treaty that gave white settlers additional land.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> It was part of the continuing struggle to define the boundaries between Indians and settlers
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> It revealed the bitterness of competition between eastern and western landowners
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> It unintentionally lead to the movement of the landless men against the gentry
 * <span style="font-family: Arial; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;"> It also led to people in both eastern and western Virginia to realize they has a common interest in preventing social unrest. This was one of the reasons they turned to slavery to help fulfill their labor needs \
