The “middle passage” refers to the part of the transatlantic trade network that carried

Africans from Africa to the West Indies and North America.

With the Proclamation of 1763, the British government attempted to

stop settlement west of the Appalachians.

During the French and Indian War, Native Americans fought on the side of

both the British and the French.

The Great Awakening caused some colonists to

abandon their Puritan and Anglican congregations.

According to the theory of mercantilism, a country has a favorable balance of trade when

the value of exports is greater than the value of imports.

In the late 1600s, the number of enslaved Africans in the South increased dramatically, in part due to a decline in

the availability of indentured servants from Europe.
