Recently I read an article about the coloniation of the Americas. This happened when people first arrived in Jamestown, Plymouth and the other colonies around the eastern half of the United States. First it talks about how England tried to colonize the people when they first arrived in the United States. However when they first arrived it was not known as the United States. The people that began the colonizing were William Penn, Benjamin Franklin and Peter Styruesant. After A while the people who were living in the colonies began to get upset and declare their independence from England. England was mad about that but they recoverd. I can relate this to my history class in seventh grade where we learned about the colonies and how they came to America and how they gained their independence from England.
