Explains a similarity between the earliest english and french voyages across the north atlantic in the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries

Both wanted to establish colonies in the New World and gain wealth for their empires.  

Explanation:

Settlers crossed the North Atlantic for different reasons, and their empires took different approaches to their colonizing efforts.

France establishes colonies as trading posts. Settlers of France were fur traders and merchants. The fur traders and merchants engaged in bringing manufacturing goods for the Native Indian in exchange for fur pelts and other resources. The French government encouraged farming efforts.

English settlers after building colonies became involved in economic activities including farming, fishing, whaling, and natural resources (timber, iron ore) along with furs.        

the industrial development of cities in the ruhr area in the nineteenth century is described. the research was based on english and german language sources. several factors that shaped growth and paths of the cities were categorized and analyzed. they are locations, resources, traditions, entrepreneurs, and technological developments. locations and resources were the most important among them; other factors may be regarded as consequences from locations and resources. among the cities, bochum, essen, gelsenkirchen, and dortmund had the richest resources and most favorable locations in the transportation network and grew to be the largest cities in the ruhr area near the end of the nineteenth century. riverside location was also a favorable factor for the development, as shown in the development of duisburg on the confluence of rhine and ruhr. resource distribution can explain the rise of textile industry, metallurgical industry, and coal and iron industries, and the northward progression of the mining industry. tradition was an important factor for cities such as krefeld, barmen, elberfeld, solingen, and remscheid, which experienced development based on their traditions through the nineteenth century. various entrepreneurs exerted influences within and beyond the local level over the ruhr area. technological development stimulated the northward progression of the mining industry and the deep connection between the coal and the iron industries.
