Lavradores de cana ? The whole class of sugarcane cultivators in Brazil. They didn?t have enough capital to set up their own engenhos so they grew sugarcane which they processed at a nearby mill, and paid three-fifths of the sugar produced as a fee to the mill owner. Although they made up a sizeable portion of the population in Brazil, they didn?t constitute a homogeneous social or economic group. For example, men with noble status, merchants, and priests all might be lavradores de cana. (emv2126)

Founding the New Nation Christopher Columbus wasn?t planning on finding America. Many of the orginal colonists were fleeing from religious persecution but continued to refer to themselves as Europeans. The 13 colonies were all very different from each other. (EX, Puritans lived in small family owned farms and were mostly democratic. Anglicans built huge plantations with slaves, and were pretentious towards the farmers) Colonists profited greatly from trade with Britain, which ended when the they were forced into the French & Indian War The Shaping of North America North America formed 10 million years ago, by breaking apart from the single landmass called Pangea Peopling the Americas

Tindall Ch 4 outline The Imperial Perspective English Administration of the colonies English colonies had some degree of self-governance, so they had a sense of more rights. English civil war from 1642-1646 also gave the colonies a break from royal control. In 1651-1663, three Navigation Acts were passed, restricting the colonies? trade to just England. The Lords of Trade was established in 1675 to enforce the Navigation Act. Edward Randolph tried to enforce the Navigation Act in Massachusetts. Massachusetts declared the Navigation Act invalid in 1678 and therefore the charter of Massachusetts was canceled by the Lords of Trade in 1684 and became a royal colony. Charles II dies in 1685. His brother James II takes over as the first Catholic ruler since 1558.
