Cultural Exchange-Lasting Impact
Cause: Columbus and Europeans thought their culture was superior to Indian culture
Effect: Europeans took Tainos’ land and forced them to work in gold mines and ranches

Cultural Exchange-Global Exchange
Cause: Columbus’ voyages began an exchange of goods and ideas
Effect: Transfer of goods and ideas is called the Columbian Exchange

Americas Effect: Native Americans
began using horses

Cultural Exchange-European Influence
Cause: Europeans brought new diseases

dead

Cultural Exchange-Native American Influence
Cause: Native Americans introduced corn,
potatoes, berries, and tomatoes to Europeans
Effect: Today, almost half of the world’s crops
can be traced to the Americas

Section 2 Guided Reading and Review
1. What motivated the Spanish conquistadors to sail to the Americas? The
conquistadors wanted to serve God and the king, and they hoped to get rich.
2. How were Cortés and Pizarro able to conquer the Aztecs and Incas? The Spanish had armor and guns; the Native
Americans were frightened by the horses and thought the Spanish were gods. European diseases also weakened the Indians.

Section 2 Guided Reading and Review
3. Why did Spaniards, such as De Soto and Coronado, fail to settle North
America? They were more interested in riches plus they faced strong Native American resistance in the north.
4. How did the king of Spain arrange for his new lands to be governed? The king
let the conquistadors govern first. Then, he set up a strong system of government,
divided the lands, and established new laws.

Section 2 Guided Reading and Review
5. Social classes in Spanish America from TOP TO BOTTOM: Peninsulares, Creoles, Mestizos, Indians
6. Why did the Spaniards begin the Atlantic slave trade? Native American slaves died from hunger, disease, and mistreatment, so the Spanish looked to Africa for replacement slaves since it was
close and Africans were believed to have been exposed to European diseases already.

People of Jamestown King James I-English king who gave the
Virginia Company a charter; Jamestown is named after him
Captain John Smith-leader of Jamestown; he set up tough rules to make settlers concentrate on planting crops; worked out an agreement with Powhatan to get corn for Jamestown
Anthony Johnson-free African planter who owned 250 acres of land and five servants

Jamestown In 1587, John White went back to Roanoke
Island near present-day North Carolina with new settlers. When White returned after a three year trip to England, all of the settlers were gone.
Beginning, Challenges, and Survival In 1606, the Virginia Company of London
received a charter from King James I allowing them to settle between present-day North Carolina and the Potomac River. In the spring of 1607, 105 colonists arrived in Virginia.

Jamestown-Challenges and Survival
Soon, the colonists realized they had settled in a swampy area, the water was unhealthy, and mosquitoes were spreading diseases.
Jamestown faced other challenges as the 13 member ruling council argued with one another and made very few plans.
The colonists also focused too much time looking for gold and not enough time planting crops.
![Page 16: Chapter 3](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070421/56816359550346895dd41656/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Jamestown John Smith established new rules that
required colonists to work if they wanted food.
They got corn from the nearby Native Americans, and tobacco soon became a hugely profitable crop.
Harsh laws and tough living conditions made Jamestown less than appealing to new settlers.

Jamestown-Reforms of 1619 The Virginia Company sent a new colonial
governor to Jamestown, and male settlers could elect burgesses to the government.
The House of Burgesses marked the beginning of representative government in the English colonies.
The Magna Carta helped to establish the belief that people have rights and kings have to obey laws.
In 1670, Jamestown began to restrict the right to vote to free, white, male landowners.

Jamestown-New Arrivals In 1619, the Virginia Company sent 100 women to
help settle the men. In 1619, only about 32 blacks lived in Virginia, but
a Dutch ship came and sold 20 Africans into slavery that year.
By 1644, about 300 Africans lived in Virginia: some were slaves, some were servants, and some were free planters.
At the end of the 1600s, Virginia established laws that permitted white colonists to enslave Africans for life.
By the early 1700s, black property owners could no longer vote.
