History London's company founded

Virginia during the reign of James I in 1566-1625.

In 1606 a group of wealthy English men established a new colony.

John smith founded Virginia They formed Virginia's colony to

establish a permanent English settlement in America.

James I died in 1625. August 18 - Elinor White Dare

gave birth to a daughter, Virginia Dare.

Virginia was named after the first child born of English parents in the New World.

We named the game after Elinor Dare’s daughter named Virginia Dare.

People in the colony

John smith, was the leader of the Virginia colony. He came to Virginia looking for gold and a new settlement.

The people in the colony were most commonly bakers, farmers, glass makers, and silversmiths.

There were salves that worked in the farms growing tobacco, corn, apples and other products.

The daring Virginia Apple biting would be great for the widgets company because the people in the Virginia colony have to have some fun once in a while. After a long day at work going home and playing a game or two of apple biting can make you forget about all the stress you had at work that day.

Climate/Geography

The land was very fertile. They grow cotton, tobacco,

wheat, peanuts, barley, tomatoes, corn, potatoes, snap peas, cucumbers, sweet corn, apples, and grapes.

The main crops are tobacco and apples.

In Virginia it rains a lot an has a cold fronts in winter, also has heavy snow storms.

The apple biting game would be good for the company because they grew cotton and apples which were the main materials in the game. The cotton was used for the string and the apples is what you are trying to bit.

Economy

The tobacco economy grow very well in the Virginia region. It could be sold at very high prices.

Tobacco created a crisis in the labor market. The need for workers in the fields were becoming greater, and greater. The settlers started to attempt to make the natives there slaves because they need more people to work in the fields to create tobacco.

The apples that they grow helped open up the jobs in the Virginia colony. The daring Virginia apple biting game would be great for the widget company because the more people that buy the game the more apples that they would need to produce. So, that would mean there would have to be more farmers to pick the apples. The more apples produced the more money the company would receive.

Religion

The religion of the Virginia was based off the Anglican church that was in England. They choose to be Anglican because they wanted to make the own choices. They didn’t want to be over ruled by a ruler.

Church was held 14 times a week. If a settler failed to attend one service, it would cost them their serving of food for the day. If they barely ever went to church then they could be sentenced to death.

After the Sabbath the colony would have a gathering were they eat and played games. So this product would be great for this colony because they would be able to play the game at these gatherings.

Politics/Government

They had many government assemblies.

The House of burgesses is a symbol of representative government. It first met on July 30th, 1619, and is made up of legislators and councilors chosen by the governor.

Apple biting can be a fun activity for all of the legislators, councilors, and the colonists after an assemblies.

Native Americans

Powhatan had many reasons to want to get rid of the English men and women – one reason is that the English strained the resources for his people

In 1618, Powhatan and his people attacked Jamestown but did not succeed in wiping out the village, negotiated peace by making an alliance, he did this by creating the marriage of his daughter Pocahontas, to captain John Rolf

Peace did not last, one day, the Englishmen had a dinner claiming to create peace, but instead they poisoned the liquor and killed nearly 200 men.

Apple biting would be good for the widget company because it could help the natives and the colonists get along by gathering and play the game.

The reason are product would be good for are region is we have lots of crops, plantations, and materials. We grow lots of apples and have many materials that are used in our game, such as cotton which the string is made out of and the apples are the main object of the game. So we have made up a game to use the materials that are grown in our region. Also the game can bring people together. It’s a way you can relax and have fun.
