the first reading

In the first reading we looked at the way the Colonizing in the New World began. It has been described that many people were told falls things and told beautiful facts in order to immigrant to maryland or New England. Most of the people were told that is the land were Honey and MIlk is flowing and a better future will be preserved and waiting for them. But the opposite was the case. Most of the immigrants would face depth for the next seven years and maybe not even survive the hard labor, disease or the different weather conditions. It has been documented that the immigration rate was 80% and most people died in less than six months. In 1625 3000 people died and only 1200 people were left from many that came. It was devastating and a setback for the english community however it was worth for the rich and glorious people, because it was an investment and for every person that a rich guy paid to immigrate, he would get land and become even richer. Immigrants did not became a citizen for many years - they were servants and would be the poorest. However time changed and over the years those servants started farming and buying land or inheriting land from the owners and moved up on the ladder towards success.
      Another astonishing fact is that woman were used as breeder - this term was described in chapter two. Basically because of the significant dead rate in the 1620's the english men needed to repopulate and they men that would come to the new world were young, ignorant, single, servants and slaves. Woman would be bought and brought over and just be there to have babies that can do more labor and children can help out early. They wouldn't cost the shipment and were easy to get. Woman had no voice or chance and were just glad to be alive and have hope to be freed some day.
