10. 1. The Navigation Act, a series of laws passed by England in the 1650’s, directed the flow of goods between England and the colonies. Colonial merchants who had goods to send to England could not use foreign ships-even if those ships offered lower ship rates. The Navigation Act also prohibited the colonists from sending certain products, such as sugar or tobacco, outside England’s empire. Some colonists ignored these laws and began smuggling in Europe or the West Indies.

11. 2. The side that received the best trade terms from Native Americans and the most help in war would probably win the contest for the control of North America. The French had the advantage. Unlike the British, the French were more interested in trading furs than taking over the Native Americans' land. The French had better relations with Native Americans. French trappers and fur traders often married Native American women and followed their customs. French missionaries converted many Native Americans to Catholicism but let them maintain their own culture.

12. 3. Most people in New England lived in well-organized towns. In the center of the town stood the meetinghouse, a building used both for church services and town meetings. The meetinghouse faced a piece of land called the green, where cows grazed and the citizen army trained. Farmers lived in the town and worked in fields on its outskirts.

14. 4. The three types of colonies are the charter colonies, proprietary colonies, and royal colonies. Charter colonies: Connecticut and Rhode Island; established by a group of settlers who had been given a charter; elected their own governors and members of the legislature; although Britain had the right to approve the governor's appointment, the governor could not veto the acts of the legislature. Proprietary colonies: Delaware, Maryland, and Pennsylvania; ruled by proprietors who were granted land by Britain; proprietors were generally free to rule as they wished; proprietors appointed the governor and members of the upper house of legislature, while the people elected the lower house. Royal colonies: Georgia, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia; ruled directly by Britain; the king appointed a governor and council, known as the upper house; the colonists elected an assembly, called the lower house; the governor and members of the council usually did what the British leaders told them to do, which often led to conflict with the assembly

15. 5. Ships brought sugar and molasses from the West Indies to the New England colonies, where the molasses was made into rum. Rum and other manufactured goods were shipped to West Africa and traded for enslaved Africans. Enslaved Africans were then taken to the West Indies and sold to planters. The profit from selling slaves was used to buy more molasses.

16. 6. Most New England colonists were English, but a great many settlers in the Middle Colonies were German, Dutch, or Swedish. These different immigrants practiced different religions. The cultural and religious diversity encouraged tolerance for such differences.
