Transcript and Presenter's Notes

Title: Bacon


1
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.

  • Horrible conditions, no bathroom access, bad

Great AwakeningJonathan Edwards
  • The God that holds you over the pit of hell,
    much as one holds a spideris dreadfully
    provokedit is nothing but his hand that holds
    you from falling into the fire every moment

5
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.

7
French and Indian War
8
Main cause
  • British and colonists vs. French and Indians
    fighting over control of the Ohio River Valley

9
Two (or more) results of the war
  • French are removed from what is now the US, all
    the way to the Mississippi River
  • England has a lot of war debt
  • Colonists want to move west now that the French
    are gone
