Where would you rather be Jamestown or Plymouth? Lets see some facts about these two colonies. Jamestown was a colonie that came from England. On the ship were more than one hundred men and including King James I. Jamestown is actually named by King James I.They came for money like gold. Also their first early years were very difficult. This is also the colonie that found tobacco. They did not have a very good relationship with the natives. Plymouth was a colonie that also came from England and they came for freedom. It was a difficult first winter. They came with men, woman, and children. They had a good relationship with the natives. It became the largest colonie, and it was named after a port in England. Because of these facts I would rather be in Plymouth.
