T h e S panish had three major motivations during their explorations of the New World: 1.GOD:Spain wanted to spread the faith of the Roman Catholic Church to the Native Americans, by force if necessary(a religious motivation).

2 . GO LD: Spain wanted to acquire wealth, primarily gold and precious jewe ls for the benefit of the Spanish Empire (an economic motivation).

3 . GL O RY:Spain wanted to acquire new lands in order to expand the Spanis h Empire(an military motivation).SS8H1 – The student will evaluate the development of Native American cultures and the impact of European exploration and settlement on the Native American cultures in Georgia.

B y t h e early 1500s, a German mapmaker gave a new name to the New World, naming it after the explorer Amerigo Vespucci, the land was called America.

Ot h er n ations, particularly France and England, were not willing to allow Spain alone to benefit from gains in the America.

Most E u r opeans believed in mercantilism, that they wanted to export more than they import. Therefore they wanted to have enough natural resources so they could export more than they imported. They also did not allow their colonies to import goods from other countries.http://www.gpb.org/georgiastories/story/mercantilism

W i t h the exception of a small portion of land in South America (modern-d ay Brazil), the Portuguese were forbidden to settle in the New World because of the Line of Demarcation.Spanish ClaimsPortugu ese Clai ms

T h e F rench ignored Spain‘s claim to all of America and began to send explorers of their own.The French Explorer, Verrazano, explored the North American coast in 1524, possibly reaching Georgia.In 16 03 , S am u e l d e Ch am p lain f o und e d a v e ry profitable fur trade in North America. He called his settlement Quebec and claimed much of North America for France, calling it New France.In 1682, Sieur de La Salle claimed the Mississippi River region for France, establishing New Orleans and Mobile.

T h e F rench were unable to compete with the military might of Spain in the southeast. After the slaughter of the French at Fort Caroline in 1565, they largely avoided encounters with the Spanish .

French in Georgia? Though the French did explore southeastern North America, their primary focus was on the fur trade and their sphere of influence was in Louisiana, the Ohio Valley, and Canada.

Future French However, the French had connections to the future Southeastern United States and the state of Georgia For example, French sailors such as Jean Ribault sailed off the coastline of Georgia and South Carolina in 1562. In addition, French Protestants came to the “New World” in search of religious freedom. These settlers, called Hugenots, moved to South Carolina in the 1680’s, and crossed into Georgia in the 1730’s

In 1 4 97 , the English ignored Spain claims to the New World and expl orer John Cabot to North America. Cabot told of bountiful fish and massive forests, but his explorations were a failure after he was lost at se a. C a b ot 䇻 s s hi p , T he M a tthe w

W i t h limited money and distracted by problems at home, the English wou ld not return to the New World for over a hundred years.SS8H1 – The student will evaluate the development of Native American cultures and the impact of European exploration and settleme n t on t h e Nat iv e A mer i c an c ul t ur es in Georgia.

In t h e 1530s, English King Henry VIII forced the Catholic Church out of England and declared himself to be the leader of the Church of England (or the Anglican Church).

S p ain c onsidered it national and Christian duty to conquer England and force it to return to the Catholic Church.In 1588, the largest fleet in human history, the Spanish Armada, was launched in order to invade and conquer Englan d .

In o n e of the great military failures in all of human history, the Spanish Armada was trapped in a ferocious sea storm and was destroyed, nearly in its entirety.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-7GoyusdtQ

S p ain n ever recovered from the failure. Though the Spanish Empire was still large, the defeat of the Spanish Armada was a death blow that would cause the Empire to crumble.

E n g lan d , now ruled by Queen Elizabeth I, was in a position to take ad vantage of Spanish weakness and emerge as the new world power. By 1607, the first permanent English settlement was established at Ja m est o w n .

English Exploration Other reasons for English settlement in the New World included “ religious freedom” and the opportunity for colonist to begin “a new life.

B y t h e 1660s, England had established 12 colonies along the eastern coast of Nor th America.
