Bacons Rebellion
2
Sample summary

• After indentured servants got their freedom, they
  wanted land, so they moved west. Out west, they
  fought with Indians. When they asked for help
  from the east coast settlers, those settlers did
  not want to help. The rebels got angry and burned
  Jamestown. As a result, the South thought slavery
  was better since free indentured servants caused
  too much trouble.

Mercantilism
6
Sample summary

• Mercantilism involves wanting to make money.
  Colonies are helpful because they are a source
  for raw materials as well as a place to sell
  finished products. In mercantilism, a country
  wants to maintain a favorable balance of trade,
  which means you want to export more than you
  import. England passed the Navigation Acts to
  keep making more money off the colonies.
