Zorluk: OrtaEuropean Colonization Models

"The Indians in these missions are very well instructed in the Christian doctrine... they have built beautiful churches and houses for themselves under our guidance. We teach them to cultivate the land, weave cloth, and raise livestock, so that they may become civilized subjects of the King, our Lord, and live in orderly towns, departing from their former wild ways."

— Fray Alonso de Benavides, Spanish Franciscan missionary, *Memorial on New Mexico*, 1630

Which of the following historical developments in the British North American colonies most directly contrasted with the colonization model described in the excerpt?

  1. A
    The establishment of tight-knit, religiously homogenous communities in the Chesapeake region that focused on small-scale subsistence farming.
  2. B
    The reliance on temporary contracts of indentured servitude as a permanent, hereditary labor system for tobacco cultivation.
  3. The development of agricultural settlements that remained demographically and socially segregated from Native American populations.Cevap
  4. D
    The creation of local colonial merchant networks designed to bypass imperial trade regulations and establish a system of free enterprise.

Cevap

The development of agricultural settlements that remained demographically and socially segregated from Native American populations.
The correct answer is correct because the British colonization model in North America focused on establishing agricultural settlements consisting of large numbers of European men and women. These settlers generally excluded Native Americans from colonial society and maintained strict demographic and social separation, which directly contrasted with the Spanish colonization model of incorporating and converting indigenous populations as subjects of the crown as described in the excerpt.
