1. What knowledge and capabilities would contribute to survival in the early colonies?

Knowledge of farming practices would be the most important, because the colonial economy, as any pre-industrial economy, was based on agriculture.

Knowledge of trades would also be important, just like it was in Europe at the time.

2. What gain would be achieved by England establishing colonies?

England obtains new resources from new lands, which make England wealthier and more powerful, both in Europe, and in the colonial areas.

3. How did the Puritan viewpoint influence future development of the United States?

Puritans were deeply conservative in their social and religious values, but at the same time, they were liberal in their political values. Because they were fleeing religious persecution in England, they were jelous of their political autonomy in the colonies. This mindset influenced American values in regards to the power that the Empire had over it.

4. Why were indentured servants in the colonies?

The colonies needed cheap labor, and at the same time, some people wanted to emigrate to the colonies but did not have enough money to do so. They sold themselves into indentured servitude for a few years, to pay for the trip expenses, and after, they became free men.

5. Discuss interactions between Europeans and American Indians.

The interactions were most of the time aggressive. Europeans had superior technology and were often victorious in the clashes, but sometimes, the Indians won as well.

panem is a communist totalitarian dictatorship where all the resources and how they are allocated belongs to the capitol. the districts exist only to provide goods and services for the capital and most of the citizens live in poverty. it is a police state where the "peacekeepers" use force and threats to keep the people under control. dissent is outlawed and those who disobey the law are executed, flogged, or turned into avoxes. the games are another means in which the ruling elite in the capitol exert their power over the districts. when reading the books i drew parallels between panem and the soviet union and north korea. in no way is panem capitalist. the people in the capitol are wealthy but the majority of them are involved in the government somehow. it was the same way in the former soviet union where bigwigs in the communist party and high ranking government officials were given access to goods, services, medical treatments not available to the general public. if you think panem has a capitalist economy you need to brush up on your economics.
